If your
Data Management Server fails to start or restart, you might need to
resolve a server dependency. This dependency applies when the DataFlux
Data Management Server is configured to use a SAS Metadata Server
for authorization and authentication. The SAS Metadata Server needs
to be fully operational before the Data Management Server can start.
This server dependency exists because the DataFlux Data Management
Server needs to retrieve several configuration option values from
the SAS Metadata Server at start-up.
The server dependency
occurs predominantly in single-machine installs, when all services
start at one time.
You can resolve the
server dependency as you see fit, or you can run the following command
on the host of the DataFlux Data Management Server:
sc config "DMServer-service-name"
depends= "SASMetadata-service-name"
The service names are
specified in the properties of the service. Do not use the displayed
server names.
Use quotation marks
as shown, use no blank space after depends
,
and use a blank space after =
, as shown in
the following example:
sc config "dfx-DMServer-server1"
depends= "SAS [Config-Lev1] SASMeta - Metadata Server"
