Parameters

Required parameter which specifies a specific PMDF component to be started: DISPATCHER (which effectively starts all components handled by the PMDF Service Dispatcher), CIRCUIT_CHECK, COUNTERS, FAX_RECEIVE.

Description

The STARTUP utility is used to start up detached PMDF processes such as the PMDF Service Dispatcher, or specific service processes such as FAX_RECEIVE. The standard component names are
Component Description
CIRCUIT_CHECK Detached process which monitors loopback message timings.
COUNTERS Detached processes which synchronize the channel counters.
DISPATCHER Multithreaded Service Dispatcher.
FAX_RECEIVE Detached processes which process incoming FAXes.

Note the services handled by the PMDF multithreaded Service Dispatcher must be started by starting the PMDF Service Dispatcher; only services not being handled by the PMDF Service Dispatcher can be individually started via the PMDF STARTUP utility. The Service Dispatcher may be configured to handle various services, e.g., and the multithreaded HTTP, IMAP (the system mailbox IMAP server), IMAP_SERVER (the PMDF MessageStore mailbox server), POP_SERVER (the PMDF MessageStore mailbox server), POP3 (the system mailbox POP server), POPPASSD, and SMTP servers. See Chapter 11 for details.


EXAMPLES

The following command starts the PMDF Service Dispatcher:


$ PMDF STARTUP DISPATCHER
