Data sharing utilities
idsminetd
Serves as the Integrated Distributed Services Manager (IDSM) launching program on Linux systems. Located in the $TC_ROOT/bin directory, it is run at system startup and services all inbound requests for a new IDSM. For more information on IDSM, see Multi-Site Collaboration. Syntax idsminetd [-u=user-id {-p=tcp-port-number | -pf=password-file} -g=group] [-d] [-t] [-r=idsm-start-script] [-n=RPC-program-number] Arguments -u Specifies the user ID. This is a user with Teamcenter administration privileges. Note If Security Services single sign-on (SSO) is enabled for your server, the -u and -p arguments are authenticated externally through SSO rather than being authenticated against the Teamcenter database. If you do not supply these arguments, the utility attempts to join an existing SSO session. If no session is found, you are prompted to enter a user ID and password. -p Specifies the port number on which the IDSM should run. Default is the system-assigned port number. -pf Specifies the password file. For more information about managing password files, see Manage password files. This argument is mutually exclusive with the -p argument. -g Specifies the group associated with the user. If used without a value, the user's default group is assumed. -d Specifies debug mode for stand-alone testing. The server runs in the foreground. -t Enhances logging. -r Specifies the IDSM start script. -n Specifies the RPC program number the IDSM should use. The default RPC program number is used if this argument is omitted. Environment As specified in Setting up a Teamcenter command-line environment. Files As specified in Log files produced by Teamcenter. Restrictions The selected port number must be in the range 1025–65535 and must not conflict with other system services. Examples Under normal circumstances, this utility runs only at system startup. The following is an example of running a debug session: Copy idsminetd -d -t -p=33333 -r=/tmp/myscript Related Topics TC XML and PLM XML Configuration for Data Import and Export Multi-Site Collaboration
