The method for starting a connector depends on whether it is running on a UNIX or a Windows system. Settings in the connector configuration file are the default source for connector property values. However, some connector properties specified in the connector's configuration file can be overridden at runtime. Appendix D, Connector startup options lists the options you can use to override properties set in the connector's configuration file.
You can start the connector in several ways:
start_connName connectorName brokerName -cConfigFile
Where:
connName and connectorName are the name of the connector, brokerName is the name of the WebSphere message broker, and configFile specifies the full-path name of the connector's configuration file.
You can modify the startup options for a Java connector by editing the connector's shortcut properties or by editing directly the connector's start_connName.bat file.
start_connector connectorName brokerName -cConfigFile
Where:
connectorName is the name of the connector, brokerName is the name of the WebSphere message broker, and configFile specifies the full-path name of the connector's configuration file.
You can modify the startup options for a Java connector by editing the connector's shortcut properties or by editing the connector's start_connector.bat file directly.
To start a connector:
Where:
connName is the name of the connector.
The case and spelling of this connector name must match the name of the connector's subdirectory under ProductDir/bin/connectors.
