Start a persistent source control agent.
Purpose
Start a daemon process that allows
for stateful interaction with Jazz source control. The process provides
an RMI interface to Jazz source control. The daemon is used by the Team Concert Client
for Microsoft® Visual Studio
IDE.
Note: daemon
discovery employs the configuration area (normally ~/.jazz-scm). If
the “--config” argument is used to set another configuration area,
any other process wishing to interact with it must use the same path.
Options and arguments
- --description arg
- Provide a description of the daemon. This is shown when listing
daemon instances with 'scm list daemons'.
- [ -c | --connection-timeout ] arg
- The number of milliseconds the daemon should wait for the first
connection.
- [ -i | --inactive-timeout ] arg
- The number of milliseconds the daemon should wait for a new connection
before shutting down.
- share-root
- A path to the root of a shared portion of the filesystem. Optional.
Example
Start a daemon with a non-standard
configuration area:
$ scm --config /tmp/daemons/ daemon start /tmp/sandbox1
Port: 37706
Key: 08AD30FB7470877D6BBE72C458719EB6
Note the use of –config to set the location
of the configuration area.
