Notes About Running Two Servers

To run two AnswerBook2 servers (one on your system, one from the CD), keep these rules in mind:

• Starting up the server

  • The /etc/init.d/ab2mgr start command always starts the server on your system.

  • The ab2cd command always starts the server from the CD.

• Shutting down the server

  • Always use the ab2cd stop command to stop the server running from the CD.

  • To stop both servers, first use the ab2cd stop command to stop the server running from the CD, then use either /etc/init.d/ab2mgr stop or /usr/lib/ab2/bin/ab2admin -o stop to stop the server running on your system.
