Running Servers as UNIX Daemons
On UNIX systems, as an alternative to using the sas.servers script, you can configure your system so that certain servers or spawners run as daemons. For example, to make the metadata server run as a daemon, you can copy the MetadataServer.sh script to the boot directory of your machine. Then add the needed information and links to the host's start and stop commands so that the metadata server is started at boot time and stopped at shutdown time. For more information, see your UNIX system administrator or the system administration guide for your platform.
