Starting and Stopping ACSLS

This section introduces the acsss command.

The acsss command

The acsss command is a start, stop, and status macro that manipulates the various services associated with the ACSLS application. See the following:

Changing ACSLS Run State

After initial startup and recovery, ACSLS is normally in the run state and ready to handle client activity. You can choose to put it into an idle state, which suspends client request processing. This is a good practice before shutting down ACSLS. You may also wish to hold off client requests temporarily, while updating or re-configuring a library.

To suspend client request processing by putting ACSLS in the idle state, enter the following command from cmd_proc:

idle

The user can continue to issue ACSLS operations using cmd_proc in idle state. To resume client request processing after an earlier idle command, enter the following command from cmd_proc:

start

ACSLS resumes request processing.
