Starting and stopping the Syslog Adapter

If you installed the Syslog Adapter as a service, it automatically starts when the system starts up. The following instructions describe how to use the sm_service utility to manually start and stop the Syslog Adapter.

Note:

To use the sm_service utility to install a service or start a service, you must have administrative privileges on the local host.

Issue one of the following from the command line:

         BASEDIR/smarts/bin/sm_service start ic-syslog-adapter

or

         BASEDIR/smarts/bin/sm_service stop ic-syslog-adapter

The System Administration Guide provides more information about the sm_service utility and about how to modify sm_service options.
