Unable to start MDM Server using CLIX

[aaron_thomas]

I am able to Stop the MDM Server by issuing 'mdsStop' command from command line. But I'm unable to re-start the MDM Server by issuing the 'mdsStart' command from command line. Is anyone else using CLIX? If so, are you successful in starting the server from CLIX?

My command:

CLIX mdsStart SERVERNAME

I get no error messages and the command line prompt comes back like normal but the MDM Server is still not running.

Try using Quotes as

clix mdsStart "hostname"

It should work.

Sorry meant "SERVERNAME" in Quotes.

I have tried putting the servername in quotes and this still does not work.

Did you have a look in the server log and the assertion log ? Maybe there's some info.

You could also run the CLIX command MDSSTATUS to find out the current status of the server. Maybe there you'll get a hint.

Klaus, the point is that the MDSSTOP command will work and the result of this command is that the MDM Server service on the hostmachine gets killed. I would assume that the MDSSTART command is supposed to startup the MDM Server service on the host machine, but it does not.

The MDMSTATUS command will work if the MDM server service is running.
