Starting TDV Server on UNIX
To start TDV and the Monitor at the same time for a UNIX session, use the following procedure. If you plan to run the server process manually and want to keep the server process running even after you log off the system, you need to run the following command:
nohup <command>
 
The command argument is one of those listed in the procedure below.
To start TDV and Monitor on UNIX
1. Log in as the user who installed TDV. This should be a user that is not the root user.
2. Navigate to the <TDV_install_dir>/bin directory.
cd <TDV_install_dir>/bin
 
3. Type the following command:
composite.sh monitor [start | stop | restart] [-user <user_name> -password <password>]
