Starting and Stopping the HDLM Manager

If an error occurs in the system, such as in an HDLM program, you might
need to manually stop or start HDLM to recover from the error.

Starting the HDLM Manager

During installation, the HDLM manager is registered as a Windows service
and the startup type is set to Automatic. This means that when Windows
starts, the HDLM manager will also start automatically.
If, for some reason, the HDLM manager does not automatically start, do the
following:
Log on to Windows as a member of the Administrators group. From Control
Panel, choose Administrative Tools, and then Services. In Windows
Server 2008, log on using the Administrator account, and then from the
Control Panel, choose Administrative Tools and Services. From the list of
services, double-click DLMManager, and then click the Start button.
Use the following dlnkmgr command's view operation to confirm that the
HDLM manager has started.
