NAME

       Aserver - start the audio server

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       The command starts the HP-UX Audio server, which can run on a system with audio hardware.  See Audio(5) for information about which systems
       have audio hardware.  The option forces the starting of the Audio server; this option is only needed if the Aserver has problems starting.

   The Audio Server
       Before using any audio tools such as the the system or X station must be running two audio server processes, called On a  Series  700,  the
       Remote Procedure Call daemon must also be running.

       Normally,  the  Aserver	processes and start automatically when the system is booted.  If problems occur on an ENTRIA or ENVIZEX X station,
       see the X station owner's manual.  On a Series 700 Audio hardware, first check if is running. Type the following:

       If it is running, you see a line similar to the following.

       If it is not running, see HP 9000/DCE documentation for information on restarting it.  If is running, verify that the Aserver  is  running.
       Type:

       If the Aserver is running you will see lines similar to the following, which indicate the presence of the two Aserver processes:

       If it is not running, become root and restart it as follows:

       If it fails to start, reissue the command with the option:

   Using Audio over the Network
       From  a	workstation,  you can also use the Audio Editor and Control Panel over the network. However, the remote system is where the actual
       playback and recording occur.

       The local workstation (or audio client) can be any Series 700 system.  The remote system (or audio server) can be a Series 700 or an X sta-
       tion  with  audio  hardware  and  must  have the Aserver processes running.  If the server is a workstation, it must also allow access from
       remote clients (see asecure(1M)) and must have running.

       To make the system an audio client, set the variable by modifying the file as follows:

	      Korn and POSIX Shells:

	      C Shell:

       For system_name, identify the workstation or X Station running the Aserver.

       If the variable is not set, the Audio Library attempts to use to the Aserver on the system defined by the variable.  If neither nor is set,
       the Aserver on the local machine is used.

DEPENDENCIES

       The Audio Server must run on a system that has audio hardware.  Note that HP-UX for the 8MB 705 System does not include audio software.
