ADMINISTRATION TOOLS
1. Shut down the Domino server, if it is running.
2. Start the Server Controller using the same command you normally use to start the Domino server but append the argument –jc. For example, if you run a server on Microsoft® Windows® XP from the directory c:\lotus\domino using a shortcut icon on the Desktop, use the following target for the shortcut:
When you run a Server Controller, you no longer have access to the traditional console at the server. You can communicate only through the Domino Console or a console in the Domino Administrator or Web Administrator.
Optional arguments to use when running the Server Controller
Starting the Server Controller using only the argument -jc starts the Domino Server and the Domino Console along with the Server Controller. There are two optional arguments you can specify to change this default behavior: -c and -s.
Use -c to prevent the Domino Console from running when you start the Server Controller. You might prevent the Console from running on a slow machine or a machine that is low on memory. If you use this argument and the Domino server ID requires a password, the Domino server starts without running its server tasks. To run the server tasks, you must connect to the Server Controller from a console and specify the server password when prompted.
Use -s to prevent the server from running when you start the Server Controller. Use this argument along with -c so that someone who is directly at the server can start only the Server Controller, and then a remote administrator can start the server and specify a required server password remotely from a console.
