Starting Actian Ingres

Getting Started with Databases and Applications

Start Actian Ingres on Linux

You can use the ingstart command to start Actian Ingres.

Note: If your operating system has shadow passwords, you must install the password validation program (see Allow Access on Systems Using Shadow Passwords on page 88) before starting a networked DBMS Server instance.

To start the Actian Ingres instance

1. Log on to your system through the system administrator account for the instance.

2. Enter the following command:

% ingstart

The ingstart command checks whether you have sufficient operating system resources to run the Actian Ingres components. If these conditions are met, ingstart starts all servers that are part of your instance.

To stop the Actian Ingres instance

Enter the following command:

% ingstop

The instance is stopped.
