Start, Stop, or Release the D2D Server

Manage your D2D Server to know the running status of the D2D Server. You can verify whether your D2D Server has stopped or is still running and then manage the server accordingly. CA ARCserve D2D for Linux supports the following command-line functions:

Start the D2D Server
Stop the D2D Server
Release the D2D Server

Follow these steps:

Navigate to the bin folder using the following command:
```
# cd/opt/CA/d2dserver/bin
```
You gain access to the bin folder.
From the bin folder, run the following commands depending on the task that you want to perform on the server:
Note: If any command is not successful, an error message is displayed explaining the reason.
```
# ./d2dserver start
```
Starts the D2D Server.

If you are successful, a message is displayed informing you that the server has started.
```
# ./d2dserver stop
```
Stops the D2D server.

If you are successful, a message is displayed informing you that the server has stopped.
```
# ./d2dserver restart
```
Restarts the D2D server.

If you are successful, a message is displayed informing you that the server has restarted.
```
# ./d2dserver status
```
Displays the status of the D2D server.
```
# /opt/CA/d2dserver/bin/d2dreg --release
```
Releases the remaining D2D Servers that are managed by the main server.

For example, if D2D Server A manages two other servers, D2D Server B and D2D Server C, then when you uninstall D2D Server A you cannot access D2D Server B and D2D Server C. You can release D2D Server B and D2D Server C using this script and can access those servers.

The D2D Server is successfully managed from the command line.
