By using the start script described below, the database and X Server (MaxDB communication server) are started automatically when the database computer is started and are stopped automatically when it is shut down.
Note
Depending on the operating system you are using, you may have to modify the start script.
You have created the database DEMODB and the DBM operator OLEG with the password MONDAY.
You are in a root shell.
Save the maxdb start script in the /etc/init.d/ directory.
Change to the /etc/rc3.d/directory.
Create the following symbolic links:
ln -s ../init.d/maxdb K05maxdb
ln -s ../init.d/maxdb S18maxdb
