Starting the SoftBench CM Server
The softcm entry in /etc/inittab starts the SoftBench CM server each
time your system is rebooted. You can also start the SoftBench CM
server manually. Use the following instructions to start the
SoftBench CM server initially so that you can see that the server has
been installed and configured correctly:
1. Log in as root.
2. Execute the server program:
/opt/softbench/sbin/cmserver
Note: SoftBench CM is installed in /opt/softbench for all platforms.
Once started successfully, cmserver disassociates itself from the
connecting terminal window (tty) and becomes a background process. It
also changes itself to be owned by softcm.
Initialization errors are printed to standard error. After initialization, all
messages are printed to the file /var/opt/softbench/cm/msglog.
Check this log for any errors, correct them, then restart the server.
Assuming the startup of cmserver was successful, the msglog file
contains entries confirming that the cm.mapping and cm.permission
files were found and read correctly.
