Start IxServer

You can start IxServer in different ways.

Start automatically from Startup

You can configure IxServer for Windows Chassis to start automatically when the chassis powers up. No operator intervention is necessary.

When you install an IxOS build, IxOS copies the shortcuts for TCL server and IxServer in the startup folder. When you restart a chassis, these servers restart automatically.

Start as service

While installing the build, if you select Run as Service, IxOS installer will create a Windows Service for IxServer (or TCL Server), which you can start or stop from Windows Service Control Manager. Desktop Shortcuts and IxServer User Interface are not available.

If you want to configure IxServer or TCL Server, you must stop the service, manually invoke server from Start Menu shortcuts, close the server, and restart the service.

Start from desktop shortcut

You can start or stop IxServer or TCL Server manually from desktop or Start menu shortcuts.

To start IxServer from desktop shortcut, do the following:

Note: IxServer may automatically run when the chassis is powered up, so it is not always necessary to manually start IxServer.
