cdsclerk(1m)cdsclerk(1m)NAME
cdsclerk - Manages the interface between clients and the CDS server
SYNOPSIS
cdsclerk [-D] [-w route]
OPTIONS
For debugging use only. Causes the cdsadv clerk process not to fork. Routes serviceability messages.
DESCRIPTION
The cdsclerk command manages the interface between clients and the CDS server.
Privilege Required
You must log in as superuser (root).
NOTES
This command is used by the advertiser on the system where the CDS clerk is running. You should use this command interactively only to do
diagnostic work on the host system.
EXAMPLE
Before you run the following process, make sure that other clerks are not running. To start the cdsclerk process, follow these steps:
Make sure that a CDS server is already running somewhere within the cell. Log in to the system as superuser (root). Log in to DCE as the
machine principal of the local host. Enter the principal name in the format /hosts/hostname/self as shown in the following example command
for a host named orion whose password is smith: # dce_login hosts/orion/self smith Enter the following command to see if the dced process
is already running: # ps
If the dced process appears on the list of active processes, proceed to step 5. If the dced process does not appear on the list of active
processes, enter the following command to start the process: # dced Enter the following command to start the cdsadv process: # cdsadv Enter
the following command with the appropriate arguments to start the cdsclerk process: # cdsclerk

dtsd(1m)dtsd(1m)NAME
dtsd - Restarts the DTS daemon
SYNOPSIS
dtsd [options] [-d] [-w serviceability]
dtsd [-s [-k courier|noncourier] [-g] [-o]]
dtsd -c
ARGUMENTS
Debug mode. The command will run in the foreground. See svcroute(5) for the full description of the appropriate format for this entry.
Only the three-field format, severity:how:where, is used. An example is: FATAL:TEXTFILE:/dev/console Run as a server. Default is backup,
courier, local server Run dtsd as a global server. Run dtsd as a courier. Run dtsd as a noncourier. When enabling as a server, set the
clock immediately. Equivalent to the command enable set clock true in dtscp or to the command dcecp dts activate -abruptly. Run dtsd as a
clerk.
DESCRIPTION
The dtsd command invokes the DTS daemon (clerk or server process). This command is usually executed as part of the overall DCE startup
script, rc.dce.
You can enter the command manually under the following conditions: If a DTS daemon fails to start automatically upon reboot If you want to
restart a daemon that you shut down to perform a backup or do diagnostic work
In normal rebooting, the rc.dce script automatically provides arguments appropriate to the choice of configuration options.
The command line arguments shown here can also be provided to dced as part of the fixed configuration strings, if dced is configured to
automatically start the dtsd.
If dtsd is started with no arguments (other than -d and -w), then the server must be started with dcecp. The following example configures
a local server: dcecp> dts configure -notglobal dcecp> dts activate
Privilege Required
DTS runs as the host machine principal, which is usually root. See the Security reference pages for information about principals.
NOTES
Use dtsd interactively only when troubleshooting; use the rc.dce script to start the DTS daemon. On some systsems the superuser is associ-
ated with the machine principal.
EXAMPLES
To restart the daemon, follow these steps: Log in to the system as superuser (root). Use the ps command to make sure that dced and cdsadv
are running. (The DCE daemon provides the endpoint mapping and security services, and cdsadv provides CDS.) Enter the following command
to restart the dts daemon as a clerk: $ dtsd -c
To restart the dts daemon as a server, use dtsd -s and to restart it as a global server, setting the clock on startup, use dtsd -s -g -o
