AcuServer services are handled by the acuserve daemon running on the server. The acuserve command can be invoked from the command line, as described in this section.
Note that if you start acuserve from the command line on a Windows NT or Windows 2000 server, it will stop when you log off. If you want acuserve to keep running after you log off, start acuserve as a Windows NT/2000 service. See Section 5.1 Installing a Windows NT/2000 Server, for more details.
The acuserve command allows you to:
The acuserve command formats on Windows NT and Windows 2000 servers are:
Acuserve
acuserve -access
acuserve -config [server] [-n port]
acuserve -info [server] [-n port]
acuserve -install [server] [any valid start options]
acuserve -kill [server] [-f] [-n port]
acuserve -query [server] [-n port]
acuserve -remove [server] [-n port]
acuserve -start [-c config_file] [-e error_file] [-l]
[-t #] [-f] [-n port]
acuserve -unlock [server] [-a] [[-c client [-u user]
[-p PID]] [-f FID] [-n port]
acuserve -version
You must be Administrator or an account that belongs to the Administrators group to use these options:
-install -config -access -kill -remove -start -unlock
To start acuserve from the command line, enter the following :
acuserve -start -e acuserve.log
Please note that when AcuServer is started as a Windows NT or Windows 2000 service, all paths used in the configuration file or on the command line are relative to the Windows NT or Windows 2000 system directory (e.g., c:\winnt\system32). For instance, if your current directory is c:\acucorp\acucbl5xx\AcuGT\bin and you start AcuServer with the command "acuserve -start -le acuserve.log", the log file will not be created in the current directory, but rather in the \winnt\system32 directory. If desired, you can use full pathnames, which has the effect of using an explicit file.
To stop acuserve enter the following:
acuserve -kill [server]
