Starting the Transporter Client
IMPORTANT: HP recommends running only one Transporter client at a time on the client
platform.
Use these commands to start the Transporter client on Linux and Windows systems. The client
stops automatically at the end of a job or if the job fails. Use the -run attribute to submit a job
for the first time. Use the -recover attribute if a job using this control file has failed, you are
resubmitting it, and you want Transporter to perform recovery on the job. For more information
about -recover, refer to
“ The -recover Command Line Option” (page 68) .
