Start CAICCI

If the CAICCI daemons are not running on the Unix, Linux or Windows remote system, you should stop and restart Enterprise Management on those remote systems.

To stop Enterprise Management

Issue the following command:

$CAIGLBL0000/scripts/unishutdown all

Once executed, wait for the "Enterprise Management Shutdown Complete" message before attempting to restart.

To restart Enterprise Management

Issue the following command:

$CAIGLBL0000/scripts/unistart all

Environment Variables

CAIGLBL0000

Must be set for stardaemon to run properly.

TMPDIR

Specifies the location of temporary files.

CAISTARDEBUG

If set, causes stardaemon to execute in foreground, and debug messages are displayed from both the stardaemon and programs that it invokes. It is not recommended that the stardaemon be run with CAISTARDEBUG set except when debugging a problem.

star.config File Settings

The stardaemon reads the star.config file, then begins processing requests from clients. The following variables, if set in the star.config file, impact the way the stardaemon acts:

LOGIN_REQUIRED

If set to 1, then users must log in to the stardaemon through utilities provided on the client machine before accessing functions on the Enterprise Management STAR server.

Note: If LOGON_TIMEOUT is also specified, then it is possible for a user login to the stardaemon to expire, requiring the user to log in again to the stardaemon, even though they were successfully able to access functions moments before. At stardaemon termination, the current logins are saved to the star.save file. These logins are reloaded when the server is restarted.

TRANSACTION_TIMEOUT

Indicates the maximum time a process that was started by the stardaemon is allowed to run.

Requests from clients usually cause additional programs to be executed asynchronously from the stardaemon. These programs are defined in the starobj.map file. By setting a TRANSACTION_TIMEOUT value, you can prevent processes from "running away" or hanging indefinitely. A value of 0 (zero) means there is no time out.
