START command

The START command reads the configuration file for the specified server process and starts the server, deployment manager, node agent, administrative agent, or job manager.

Depending on the options you specify, you can launch a new Java™ virtual machine (JVM) application programming interface (API) to run the server process or write the launch command data to a file. You can run this command from the MVS™ console of a WebSphere® Application Server installation or a WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment installation.

The following examples demonstrate correct syntax:

START appserver_proc_name,JOBNAME=server_short_name,
       ENV=cell_short_name.node_short_name.server_short_name

START dmgr_proc_name,JOBNAME=server_short_name,
       ENV=cell_short_name.node_short_name.server_short_name

START nodeagent_proc_name,JOBNAME=server_short_name,
       ENV=cell_short_name.node_short_name.server_short_name

START administrative_agent_proc_name,JOBNAME=server_short_name,
       ENV=cell_short_name.node_short_name.server_short_name

START job_manager_proc_name,JOBNAME=server_short_name,
       ENV=cell_short_name.node_short_name.server_short_name

You must enter this command on a single line. It is split here for display purposes.
