The server can receive service requests from the manager
on an application server only if the proxy is started on the server
computer. If the proxy is not configured as a MicrosoftWindows service
or as a Linux or UNIX daemon, you must start the proxy manually.
How you verify whether the proxy is started depends
on the operating system of the server computer.
- On a Windows computer,
look for the Optim Proxy application in Task
Manager and look for the IBM InfoSphere Optim Server Proxy service
in the Services administrative tool. If you do not find the Optim
Proxy application, and the IBM InfoSphere Optim
Server Proxy service is not started or does not exist,
the proxy is not started.
- On a Linux or UNIX computer, run the proxy_folder/proxystate.ksh script,
where proxy_folder is the
folder to which the proxy was installed. The proxy_folder/proxystate.ksh script
displays the process status of the proxy. If no process status is
displayed when you run this script, the proxy is not started.
To start the proxy manually: - On a Windows computer,
click .
- On a Linux or UNIX computer, run the proxy_folder/proxy.ksh script.
If you start the proxy by using the proxy_folder/proxy.ksh script,
you can stop the proxy by using the proxy_folder/stopproxy.ksh script.
