IBM Lotus Notes, Domino, Domino Designer 8 Release Notes
Installing the NSD service
Use this command to install the NSD service:
–
svcinst
Installs the NSD Win32 service. Once installed and started, Notes and Domino fault recovery will use the
Win32 service for all attempts to invoke NSD.
Note that –svcinst only installs the service; it must be started separately, either by running NSD –svcstart,
by using the Services control panel applet to start it, or by rebooting the system, in which case the service
will start automatically. The install command registers NSD as a Win32 system service.
This option is only useful for situations where the service has previously been uninstalled and is only
available on Windows versions of Notes and Domino. The -svcinst command is usually paired with
-svcstart, which starts the service. For example, enter the following:
nsd -svcinst -svcstart
Starting and stopping the NSD service
Use the following commands to start and stop the NSD service:
–
svcstart
Starts the NSD Win32 service. Once started, Notes and Domino fault recovery will use the Win32
service for all attempts to invoke NSD.
This option is only useful when the NSD Win32 service is installed and not started. It is only available
on Windows versions of Notes and Domino. For example, enter:
nsd -svcstart
–
svcstop
Stops the NSD Win32 service. Once stopped, Notes and Domino fault recovery will run NSD as a
child process for all attempts to invoke NSD.
This option is only useful when the NSD Win32 service is installed and started. This option is only
available on Windows versions of Notes and Domino. For example, enter:
nsd -svcstop
Using the NSD service

directory.
This option is only useful when specified with another service option and is only available on Windows
versions of Notes and Domino. For example, enter:
nsd -svclog
–
svcreport
Requests status information about the NSD Win32 service from Microsoft Windows, which is then
written to the console (stdout), and appended to the nsdsvc.log file (if –svclog is also specified). This
option is only available on Windows versions of Notes and Domino. For example, enter:
nsd -svcreport
