NMC-RX 7.3.x User Guide, Vol. 1 > Installing and Running the NMC-RX Application > Starting Config Sync Services

Starting Config Sync Services

Config Sync Services must be running to discover the devices that you want to configure.

NOTE: All Config Sync Service settings have moved into the NMC-RX database. To change the settings in the NMC-RX application, choose NMC-RX Application Settings in the Configuration menu. The Config Sync Service settings are also requested during installation. Each workstation on which you install Config Sync Services has its own specific settings.

Starting the Config Sync Services in Windows

We recommend that you start and run Config Sync Services before you start the NMC-RX application. Without these services, an error message appears when you try to create or update a new device. If you encounter such an error, start one or more Config Sync Services.

You can, however, start Config Sync Services after you start the NMC-RX application because the NMC-RX application periodically tries to detect Config Sync Services. For more information, see Chapter 5, Configuring NMC-RX Application Settings.

To run Config Sync Services:

Starting Config Sync Services in Solaris

To start a Config Sync Service from <NMC-RX installation directory>/bin/, run ./CfgSyncSvc<serviceID>/CfgSyncSvc<serviceID> or use the configsync script, which is located in the <NMC-RX installation directory>/utils directory. To start the configsync script, run either configsync start all or configsync start <serviceID>.

configsync start all console
