You can start and stop enterprise servers on your local machine only. These options are not available when you select a remote
server.
- In Server Explorer, right-click your enterprise server under the
group.
- Choose the appropriate option from the context menu.
A security dialog box might appear. If the server you are starting has no security set, click
OK to continue. Otherwise, select
Server is secured and enter the credentials.
Note: If the server is local and unsecured, then the system will use the
casstart command to start the enterprise server, thereby using the current user's credentials. Otherwise, the system will use Directory
Services (MFDS) to start the server, and use the "SYSTEM" user ID.
You can choose to store these connection settings to skip this step in the future when starting, stopping, or restarting the
server, or submitting a JCL job.
To clear saved connection settings, right-click your enterprise server in Server Explorer and click
Clear credentials.
You can see the progress of the command in the console if you have enabled
Show Local Console for your enterprise server in
Enterprise Server Administration.
