10.2.1 Starting the HADB server

To start the HADB server, execute the adbstart command. The HADB server starts.

Enter the command as follows:

adbstart
Important

Multiple operation modes are available for the HADB server. For details about the HADB server operation modes, see 10.2.3 HADB server operation modes.

By specifying an option when you execute the adbstart command, you can change the operation mode after the HADB server has started. If no option is specified, the HADB server inherits the operation mode that was in effect when the HADB server terminated previously. For details about how to specify options for the adbstart command, see adbstart (Start the HADB Server) in the manual HADB Command Reference.

After you have started the HADB server, set it up to restart automatically as needed. For details, see 10.2.4 Setting up the HADB server to restart automatically.
