Configure the server: Start the instance

To start an instance, run the startSever script from the Qshell command line. To run the script, follow these steps:

  1. Enter the Start Qshell (STRQSH) command on an OS/400 command line.

  2. On the Qshell command line, use the cd command to change to the directory that contains the script. For example:

    cd /QIBM/ProdData/WebAS5/Base/bin
  3. Run the startServer script. Enter this command:

    startServer -instance mdbconfig serverName

    where mdbconfig is the name of the instance you want to start and serverName is is the name of the server you want start. For more information on the startServer script and additional parameters, see The startServer script.
