Starting the Multi-user Server Or Broker

Before you can run multi-user Progress, you must start the multi-user server process. The server process coordinates all the database requests from all the users using a single database. Enter the following command to start the multi-user server process:

NOTE: On UNIX systems that run shared-memory versions of Progress, the main database server is called the broker. The broker process manages shared resources and starts servers for remote users, if necessary. For more information, see the "Shared-memory Architecture" section in Configuring Progress."

db-name

Specifies the database you want to start Progress against (-db is implicit).
