3.1.1.3 Starting a Thin Server from the Command Line
You may invoke a thin server from the OpenVMS command line.
Instead of placing a number of options on the command line, you may wish to create a
server definition within an XML-formatted configuration file and then start the server using
its server name. The server type for this server definition must be set to RdbThinSrv for a
standard thin server.
Format
$ java –jar rdbthinsrv.jar [-option ]
See Server Configuration Options for a list of valid options. Remember that on the DCL
command line, each configuration option must have a hyphen (-) prepended to it.
By default, the server is assumed to be of type RdbThinSrv, a standard thin server.
Example
$ java –jar rdbthinsrv.jar -port 1707
Alternatively, given the following server section in the XML-formatted configuration file
mycfg.xml:
<server
name="serv1"
type="RdbThinSrv"
url="//localhost:1707/"
logfile="myLogs:serv1.log"
/>
the following method may be used to start this thin server:
$ java –jar rdbthinsrv.jar –cfg mycfg.xml –name serv1
See XML formatted Configuration File
for more details on server definitions within
configuration files.
