Use the startManager command to manipulate a deployment manager with scripting.
The startManager command reads the configuration
file for the Network Deployment manager process and constructs a launch command.
Depending on the options you specify, the startManager command launches
a new Java virtual machine (JVM) API to run the manager process, or writes
the launch command data to a file.
You must run this command from the profile_root/bin directory of a Network Deployment installation.
If you are using the Windows platform and you have the
deployment manager running as a Windows service, the startManager command
will start the associated Windows service and it will be responsible for starting
the deployment manager.
The startManager command reads the configuration
file for the deployment manager profile and starts the server.
You do not have to use a user name and password with the startManager command because this command launches a server process but does not invoke an MBean method.
For more information about where to run this command, see the Using command line tools article.
The command syntax is as follows:
startManager [options]
startManager [server] [options]where server is an optional parameter that specifies the name of the deployment manager server. If you do not specify this option and you use the deployment manager profile, server defaults to the deployment manager. If you do not specify this option and you specify a profile other than the deployment manager, server defaults to the name of the profile.
Because the deployment manager profile
is not the default profile, you must specify the -profileName option when
using the startManager command.
The following options are available for the startManager command:
startManager startManager -script (produces the start_dmgr.sh or .bat file) startManager -trace (produces the startmanager.log file)
startManager startManager -script (produces the start_dmgr.sh file) startManager -trace (produces the startmanager.log file)
startManager -profileName dmgr (starts the deployment manager for the dmgr profile) startManager -trace (produces trace files in the profile_root/logs directory)
