The httpd Command
The httpd command starts, stops, and restarts the iTP Secure WebServer
environment. The command takes these actions on startup:
•
Reads and validates a configuration file, which describes the entities to be created.
•
Creates a PATHMON process to provide process-management services for the iTP
Secure WebServer environment
•
Starts the iTP Secure WebServer (the httpd server) as a NonStop TS/MP server
class.
•
Checks configuration for transport services providers and server processors. If
TCPSAM specified and a TCPMON running on every processor, then uses Parallel
Library TCPIP, TCP/IPv6, or IP CIP (based on the availability), otherwise, starts the
Distributor process as a NonStop TS/MP server class.
•
Starts the generic CGI server and any other specified servers that use the Pathway
CGI interface.
