4.5 Starting and Stopping the HDLM Manager

If an error occurs in the system, such as in an HDLM program, you might need to

manually stop or start HDLM to recover from the error.

4.5.1 Starting the HDLM Manager

During installation, the HDLM manager is registered as a Windows service and the

startup type is set to Automatic. This means that when Windows starts, the HDLM

manager will also start automatically.
If, for some reason, the HDLM manager does not automatically start, do the following:
Log on to Windows as a member of the Administrators group. From Control Panel,

choose Administrative Tools, and then Services. In Windows Server 2008, log on

using the Administrator account, and then from the Control Panel, choose

Administrative Tools and Services. From the list of services, double-click

DLMManager, and then click the Start button.
Use the following

view

operation to confirm that the HDLM

manager has started.
