hi,

When starting the database server using StartServer.sh, it comes
back to a special command prompt allowing you to pause, continue
or shutdown the server. Is there a way to start the server in
a Unix OS startup script so it will come up and down with the server
and run in the background?

Hello,

The three option on running StartServer.sh provides you three special
features:

1.Pause

To control the load on Daffodil DB server you pause the server.
On pausing it, no new Client will be able to connect through the
database server, although the existing connected client can get
their services without any interruption.

2.Continue

To re-open the server for new Client to connect (once is pause),
user can use this option.


3.Shutdown

To shutdown the server.

You can run the server as a background process using UNIX OS
command (with & option).
