Using command-line switches

Running the UNIX database server as a daemon
To run the UNIX database server in the background, and enable it to run
independently of the current session, you run it as a daemon.
Note Do not use ’&’ to run the database server in the background. It will not
work. You must instead run the database server as a daemon.
❖ To run the UNIX database server as a daemon:
• Use the -ud command-line option when starting the database server. For
example:
start_asiq -ud asiqdemo.db
Running the server as a Windows NT service
You can run the server as a service under Windows NT. This allows it to keep
running even when you log off the machine. For details of this and other NT-
specific features, see the Adaptive Server IQ Installation and Configuration
Guide.
