NAME dtsd - Restarts the DTS daemon SYNOPSIS dtsd [options] [-d] [-w serviceability] dtsd [-s [-k courier|noncourier] [-g] [-o]] dtsd -c ARGUMENTS -d Debug mode. -w serviceability See svcroute for the full description of the appropriate format for this entry. Only the three-field format, severity:how:where, is used. An example is: FATAL:STDERR:FILE:dce_local/var/svc/fatal.log -s Run as a server. Default is backup, courier, local server -g Run dtsd as a global server. -k courier Run dtsd as a courier. -k noncourier Run dtsd as a noncourier. -o When enabling as a server, set the clock immediately. Equivalent to the command enable set clock true in dtscp or to the command dcecp dts activate -abruptly. -c Run dtsd as a clerk. DESCRIPTION The dtsd command restarts the DTS daemon (clerk or server process). When the host system is rebooted, this command is automatically executed as part of the overall DCE configuration procedure. You can enter the command manually if a DTS daemon fails to start automatically upon reboot, or if you want to restart a daemon that you disable and delete to perform a backup or do diagnostic work. After the process starts, you must execute the dtscp commands to create and enable to run DTS. Privilege Required Only the local host machine principal can start the DTS daemon. See the Security reference pages for information about principals. NOTES Use dtsd interactively only when troubleshooting; use the SYS$MANAGER:DCE$SETUP.COM command procedure to start the DTS daemon for all other instances. EXAMPLES To restart the daemon for troubleshooting, follow these steps: 1. Log in to the system. 2. Log in to DCE as the machine principal of the local host. Enter the principal name in the format hosts/hostname/self as shown in the following example command for a host named mystic whose password is smith: $ dce_login hosts/mystic/self smith 3. Enter the following command to see if the required processes are already running: $ @SYS$MANAGER:DCE$SETUP SHOW If the list of active processes does not indicate missing daemons, proceed to step 4. If any process is missing from the list of active processes, enter the following command to start them: $ @SYS$MANAGER:DCE$SETUP START 4. Enter the following command to restart the server: $ STOP/ID=<dtsd PID from step 3 show> $ dtsd :== $sys$system:dce$dtsd $ dtsd -<arg1> [-<arg2>] RELATED INFORMATION Commands: dtscp create enable Books: OSF DCE Administration Guide
