Configuring Your System

In the ColdFusion Administrator, if you enable or disable security or change any option in the Java and JVM Settings
page, stop and restart the ColdFusion process for your changes to take effect. This applies to the server configuration
only; in the multiserver and J2EE configurations, you use application-server-specific methods to update Java settings.

Managing the ColdFusion process in Mac OS X
The ColdFusion installation creates a single process in UNIX called cfusion. To check whether it is running, use the
following command:
ps -eaf | grep coldfusion9
If it is running, your computer returns something similar to the following line:
nobody 4528 1 10 12:44 pts/0 00:00:07 /opt/coldfusion9/bin/coldfusion9 -jar jrun.jar -start
coldfusion
Note: This discussion applies to the ColdFusion 9 server configuration only. With the multiserver or J2EE configuration,
you start and stop ColdFusion 9 by starting the application server.
The ColdFusion process starts automatically when you start your computer and shuts down automatically when you
shut down your computer, if you specified that it should do so in the installation.
