This section describes starting the HADB management agent in most cases by running the ma-initd script. For a production deployment, start the management agent as a service to ensure its availability. For more information, see Starting the HADB Management Agent in Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server 2.1 High Availability Administration Guide.
If starting a database with HADB nodes on several hosts, start the management agent on each host.
Change to the /etc/init.d directory:
cd /etc/init.d
Run the command to start the agent:
./ma-initd start
HADB is started by default when Sun Java System is configured and running. However, if you need to start it manually, follow these steps:
Go to Start⇒Settings⇒Control Panel, and double click Administrative Tools.
Double click Services shortcut.
Select HADBMgmtAgent Service from the Services list.
From the Action menu, select Start.
Change to the HADB bin directory in the Enterprise Serverinstallation: as-install/hadb/4/bin
Run the command to start the agent:
./ma-initd start
