Installing the CIM Extension for SGI IRIX216
Starting the CIM Extension by chkconfig
After installation, appqcime chkconfig is on by default. This means the appqcime service starts
automatically after the host is rebooted. The appqcime service must be running for the management
server to obtain information about the host. You can disable the appqcime service so that it does not
start automatically after a reboot.
NOTE: You can only disable appqcime from starting automatically after a reboot if you are at run
level 2.
To check the appqcime chkconfig status, enter the following at the command prompt:
# chkconfig | grep appqcime
If appqcime is capable of starting after a reboot, it is shown to be on, as displayed in the following
output:
appqcime on
To disable appqcime from starting after a reboot, enter the following at the command prompt:
# chkconfig appcime off
If you have disabled the automatic start-up of appqcime and you want to enable appqcime so it will
start after a reboot, enter the following at the command prompt:
# chkconfig appqcime on
