NAME

cdsd - Starts the CDS server

SYNOPSIS

cdsd [-a] [-D] [-l principal] [-w route]

ARGUMENTS

-aCreates a new namespace if there is not an existing namespace. This flag is meaningful only when the cell is first configured (that is, the initial creation of the namespace). 

-DFor debugging use only. Causes the cdsd process not to fork. 

-l principalLocksmith mode. Allows the principal specified to have full access to all information stored with this server. 

-w routeRoutes serviceability messages. 

DESCRIPTION

The cdsd command starts the CDS server. 

Privilege Required

You must log in as superuser (root). 

NOTES

This command is ordinarily executed by a DCE configuration or startup script. You should use this command interactively only when a cdsd fails to start automatically after a reboot, or if you want to restart a cdsd  after disabling it to perform a backup or to do diagnostic work on the host system. 

EXAMPLE

To restart a cdsd server, follow these steps:

     1.Log in to the server system as superuser (root). 

     2.Verify that the dced and cdsadv processes are running. 

     3.Enter the following command to restart the CDS server:

# cdsd

When the server process starts, it starts all clearinghouses on the system.
