 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>]
