Configuring to start callback daemons at system reboot on AIX

The SAP callback daemon needs to run all the time. A monitor makes sure that it is restarted if it ever stops after it is started.

To start the SAP callback daemon at system startup, you must edit the /etc/rc.iprsap.daemons file from the AIX command line from the InfoPrint Manager AIX server as an authorized user or as root.

  1. From the AIX command line, verify that you can ping the SAP server by host name:
    ping -c3 hostname

    where hostname is the unqualified name for the SAP server, such as sapsrv.

    If you cannot ping the SAP server by the host name, edit the /etc/hosts file and add the host name and the IP address of the SAP server (for example, 192.168.11.109 sapsrv).

  2. Access the rc.iprsap.daemons file in the /etc directory. Edit the file and add this command:
    /usr/lpp/pd/bin/startcbd SystemName HostName InstanceID User \ 
Client Password Language
    Note: For more information, see Defining an SAP user for the OMS callback daemon or process.

    Specify the same values you used in Collecting information necessary to start an SAP callback daemon or process.

    To start the SAP callback daemon see Starting the SAP callback daemon on AIX.
