Manually starting or stopping a node manager (tarball Linux)

After completing a tarball Linux installation of a node manager, you can manually start the node manager. This procedure makes it possible to start, stop, and run the node manager as a user other than root.

Before you begin

You have installed the node manager using the tarball method; see Installing a node manager (tarball Linux).

Procedure

Log in to the Linux computer where the node manager is installed.
Enter the following command: <node manager installation dir>/boot/inittss-nm-rh start

Note: To stop the node manager, enter the following command: <node manager installation dir>/boot/inittss-nm-rh stop

What to do next

After starting a node manager for the first time, you must indicate to the server that you "trust" it; see Trusting a node.
