How to start the MDM (when startAppServer is not enough)

Hi, I am aware that in oder to start MDM Master, we just need to run the startAppServer.sh program, that basically will start Liberty, and the application (MDM) associated to it. However, I confused about the fact that I see another start commands that, in theory, I am nor required never to run. For example, I have another appserverstart.sh commands, that seems to be related to broker, and even on the fact that I did not install any dynamic agent on the MDM master, I have also the commands related to start/stop the agent (StartUpLwa, ShutdownLwa). There is even a StartUp command that I do not do what is doing. Is enough to run an startAppServer to run the server ? Does that command also starts the remaining needed services or should I also do other "starts" ? Thks !

Hi, startAppServer.sh just starts the appserver, but it doesn't start all the required services, its better to use the StartUp script, because it starts the appserver, and the main MDM process (netman) as well. after that you can issue the "conman start" command , which will start the batchman, mailman. if you see unlinked agents, or that the DWB is not linked, you can do a manual link to all agents with this command, and look for writer processes to verify : "conman link @\;noask " Greetings, Mark
