PingDirectory

Starting the PingDataMetrics server at boot time

Use the terminal to start the PingDataMetrics server at boot time.

Steps

  1. Create the startup script as the non-root PingDataMetrics server user.

    Example:

    In the following example, ds is the user.

    $ bin/create-rc-script --outputFile Ping-Identity-ME.sh \
      --userName ds
  2. Sign on as root.

  3. Move the generated Ping-Identity-ME.sh script into the /etc/init.d directory, and create symlinks to it from the /etc/rc3.d directory (starting with an "S" to start the server) and the /etc/rc0.d directory (starting with a "K" to stop the server).

    Example:

    # mv Ping-Identity-ME.sh /etc/init.d/
    # ln -s /etc/init.d/Ping-Identity-ME.sh /etc/rc3.d/S50-Ping-Identity-ME.sh
    # ln -s /etc/init.d/Ping-Identity-ME.sh /etc/rc0.d/K50-Ping-Identity-ME.sh
