About the Installed TDV Services
The installation process installs the following services which are TDV processes that run in the background:
server—the TDV Server process.
repository—the database repository used by TDV.
monitor—a process that monitors the TDV Server and ensures that it is always running.
cache—a process that runs the default caching database.
All processes must be running for TDV to function properly.
For more information on configuring and starting TDV, see the TDV Administration Guide.
