To start the Vault Server

You can either start the Vault Server manually, or set up the VS as a Windows NT service. The executable SSAODMVaultServer.exe is provided to install the Vault Server as a Windows NT service.

To install the Vault Server as a Windows service

  1. After Installing the Infor ODM Vault Server, open the Windows Services window; click Services on the Control Panel.

    [...]

  2. Click SSAODM Vault Server from the list of services, and click Properties.

    The Properties window of this service appears.

    [...]
  3. In the Startup type area, click Automatic.
  4. Click Start. If the service cannot start, run Eventvwr.exe and check the Event Viewer for details.
To start the Vault Server manually

Change to the VS home directory.

Run <java_loader> <VS_Class_name> <VS Parameter File>

where <VS_Class_name> is currently:

com.vault.server.VaultServer

Example

java com.vault.server.VaultServer com/vault/properties/vsprop_2001

On some platforms, you may be required to set the CLASSPATH environment variable to point to the VS home directory.

Alternatively, run the VS invocation script to start the Vault Server. You can find sample VS invocation scripts in the following files:

  • For Windows platforms: Server2001.bat and Server4001.bat
  • For UNIX platforms: Server2001.csh and Server4001.csh

These files are located in the dmfsvs subdirectory of the Infor ODM Vault Server, or for independent VS installations, in the dmfsvs subdirectory of the Vault Server directory.

These scripts start the VS with the Server 2001.properties and Server 4001.properties sample parameter files, respectively.

On a UNIX platform, you can run the VS using the following command:

java com.vault.server.VaultServer com/vault/properties/Server2001.properties
