ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager 14.2 Operator's Guide

2.2 Starting a Service

Normally, you do not need to manually start AdvancedCopy Manager services because they are automatically started when the system is started.
However, you need to manually start a service if:

• The startup of the service has failed for some reason.

• The service has been intentionally stopped.

To manually start a service:

1. Click [Control Panel]->[Administrative Tools]->[Services] to display the service window.

2. A list of services registered in the system will be displayed. Select a service to be started and click the [Start] button

When using MSCS or WSFC for cluster operations

This section describes how to start the services in a cluster system.
In a cluster system that is already established, the startup types assigned to the services are as follows:
