Running the MobiLink server outside the current session

You can set up the MobiLink server to be available all the time. To make this easier, you can run the MobiLink server for Windows and for Unix so that it remains running when you log off the computer. The way you do this depends on your operating system.

  • Unix daemon   You can run the MobiLink server as a daemon using the mlsrv11 -ud option, enabling the MobiLink server to run in the background, and to continue running after you log off.

  • Windows service   You can run the Windows MobiLink server as a service.

    To stop a MobiLink server that is running as a service, you can use mlstop, dbsvc, or the Windows Service Manager.
