Starting Results with One Database

This section describes how to start Results from your operating system using a single Progress Atlas database in single-user and in multi-user mode.

To start Results from your operating system, type the appropriate command at your operating system prompt, where dbname is the name of your Progress Atlas database.

The following command starts Results in single-user mode:

results dbname 

The following command starts Results in multi-user mode:

mresults dbname 

If you have not performed an initial build on this database, the system displays a message that there is no .qc file for the database you specified. In that case, you need to perform an initial build. For information about the initial build process, see the "Description of the Initial Build" section in Database Administration."

NOTE: You should not get an initial build prompt if someone has already installed the Results package for you. If you do, see your database administrator.

Be sure to shut down the server process when you are done and ready to turn off the computer. See the section in this appendix called "Shutting Down a Server for the Database," for more information.
