Command Prompt

To start the Client Manager from a command prompt, change to the directory where the Client Manager is installed and enter the startup command as follows:

IEFCMxxN.exe iefcm startup /initfile=[filename]

Note: xx refers to the current release of CA Gen. For the current release number, see the Release Notes.

IEFCMxxN.exe

Specifies the name of the Client Manager executable

iefcm

Specifies the transaction code associated with the initial procedure step. This is a required parameter.

startup

Specifies the initial command executed by the initial procedure step. This is a required parameter.

/initfile=

Is followed by the name of the initialization file for this Client Manager instance. Use the filename iefcmn.ini for the first execution. In later executions you will use the name you give the initialization file during configuration. This parameter is optional. If not specified, the default initialization file name "iefcmn.ini"is used.

For single-instance Client Manager it is not necessary to change the name of the iefcmn.ini as there would be a need for only one .ini file. For use in a multi-user environment, each instance of the Multi-Instance Client Manager must have its own uniquely named initialization file.
