18.2 Stopping a Driver Instance in the Remote Loader

Each platform has a different method for stopping a driver instance in the Remote Loader. For more information about the parameters used in this section, see Understanding the Configuration Parameters for the Remote Loader.

NOTE:

  • If you run multiple instances of the Remote Loader on a UNIX or Linux computer, include the -cp command port option to ensure that the Remote Loader can stop the appropriate instance.

  • When you stop a driver instance, you must have sufficient rights or specify the Remote Loader password. For example, the Remote Loader is running as a Windows service. You have sufficient rights to stop it. You enter a password, but realize that it is incorrect. The Remote Loader stops anyway, because the Remote Loader does not actually “accept” the password. Instead, it ignores the password because the password is redundant in this case. If you run the Remote Loader as an application rather than as a service, the password is used.

To stop a driver instance:

Linux

Enter the rdxml -config filename -u command. For example:

rdxml -config config.txt -u
UNIX

Enter the dirxml_jremote -config filename -u command. For example:

dirxml_remote -config config.txt -u
Windows

Use the Remote Loader Console.

During installation, if you created a shortcut for the Remote Loader Console, use the Identity Manager Remote Loader Console icon on the desktop. Otherwise, run the rlconsole.exe located by default in C:\novell\remoteloader\nnbit.
