How to configure Spectrum to automatically start the SpectroSERVER and Archive Manager when the system is restarted.

Environment

Release: Any
Component:

Resolution

This can be accomplished by modifying the $SPECROOT/lib/SDPM/partslist/SS.idb and ARCHMGR.idb files and un-commenting the AUTOBOOTSTART parameter and setting the value to "y".

Example:

# Processd Install Ticket for SPECTRUM Archive Manager.
PARTNAME;ARCHMGR;
APPNAME;SPECTRUM Archive Manager;
WORKPATH;$SPECROOT/SS/DDM;
LOGNAMEPATH;$WORKPATH/ARCHMGR.OUT;
LOGBACKUPMAX;10;
ADMINPRIVS;y;
#AUTORESTART;N;
AUTOBOOTSTART;Y;
#STATEBASED;N;
NUMPROCS;1; // one per host
RETRYTIMEOUT;0; // seconds
#TICKETUSER;ackjo04;
RETRYMAX;0;     // retries
STARTPRIORITY;30;
SERVERPROCESS;Y;
#SERVICE;N;
#ENV;<var>=<value>;
ARGV;$SPECROOT/SS/DDM/ArchMgr<CSEXE>; //

After making the change to the idb files, you will need to restart processd to pick up the change by doing the following:

1. On Linux, su or login into the system as the root user. On Windows, log in the system as the user that owns the Spectrum installation and start a bash sheel by running "bash -login"

2. cd to the $SPECROOT/lib/SDPM directory and enter the following command:

./processd.pl restart
