3.5.1 Matrix Server Command Reference

Chapter 1: Matrix Server Commands 16

values. The file describes the available options and the required format. We

recommend that you change this file only at the request of PolyServe

personnel.

The mxinit options are:

-s, --start

Start the Matrix Server processes.

-x, --stop

Gently stop the Matrix Server processes. mxinit first attempts to unmount

PSFS filesystems. If the unmount fails, the gentle stop operation will also

fail.

If you specify both --stop and --hard, the mxinit command first attempts

the --stop operation. If it fails, mxinit then executes the --hard operation.

-H, --hard

Perform a hard, immediate stop of the Matrix Server processes. mxinit

first attempts to terminate any applications accessing PSFS filesystems. It

then unmounts the filesystems, terminates the Matrix Server processes,

and unloads Matrix Server modules.

-L, --load-mod

Load all Matrix Server modules.

-U, --unload-mod

Unload all Matrix Server modules.

-f file, --alt-config-file file

Use the specified configuration file instead of the default configuration file

(/etc/opt/polyserve/mxinit.conf).

-v, --verbose

Print verbose output about each step of the mxinit operation.

--version

Display the version of Matrix Server.

-m, --monitor

Explicitly tell mxinit to monitor processes. This is the default when mxinit

is invoked to start Matrix Server.
