Starting and Stopping the HDLM Manager

If an error occurs in the system, such as in an HDLM program, you might

need to manually stop or start HDLM to recover from the error.

Starting the HDLM Manager

During installation, the HDLM manager is registered as a Windows service

and the startup type is set to Automatic. This means that when Windows

starts, the HDLM manager will also start automatically.

If, for some reason, the HDLM manager does not automatically start, do the

following:

Log on to Windows as a member of the Administrators group. From Control

Panel, choose Administrative Tools, and then Services. In Windows

Server 2008, log on using the Administrator account, and then from the

Control Panel, choose Administrative Tools and Services. From the list of

services, double-click DLMManager, and then click the Start button.

Use the following dlnkmgr command's view operation to confirm that the

HDLM manager has started.
