Synopsis

soamstartup
soamstartup -h
soamstartup -V

Description

In Symphony DE, use soamstartup to start Symphony software processes on the local host under the authority of the login user.

The processes soamstartup starts depend on the host role, management or compute.

  • If the host is a management host, as specified invem_resource.conf, soamstartup starts:
    • Platform EGO emulator (start_agent)

    • Session director (sd)

    • Repository service (rs)

    • Platform Management Console (webgui) and Java processes

  • If the host is a compute host, soamstartup starts:
    • Platform EGO emulator (start_agent)

    • For any applications specified to be prestarted in their application profiles, soamstartup also starts:

      • Session manager (ssm)

      • Service instance manager (sim)

  • Processes started when the session director receives workload requests or enabled applications are specified to prestart in their application profiles are:

    • Session manager (ssm)

    • Service instance manager (sim)

Attention:

For Windows users only—If Symphony DE is installed by the administrator, start_agent runs as a Windows service. Closing the command shell under which Symphony DE was started or logging off Windows does not stop the start_agent service. However, installing Symphony DE as a non-administrative user makes Symphony DE run as a normal Windows process. In this case, if you close the command shell from which soamstartup was issued, the start_agent process is killed but any processes it started, such as the session director or session manager continue to run and must be shut down using soamshutdown. If the user logs off Windows, all DE processes will be stopped.
