Linux

You can start and stop the Genomics Server from the command line. You can also run it as a service.

Command Line:

Open a terminal and navigate to the CLC Server installation directory. Once there the server can be controlled with the following commands.

To start the server run the command:

./CLCScienceServer start

To stop the server run the command:

./CLCScienceServer stop

To view the current status of the server run the command:

./CLCScienceServer status

You can run these commands as any user, either directly on the command, or by prefacing the commands with sudo. e.g .

sudo -u <username> ./CLCScienceServer status

Please note: To run the Genomics Server as a non-root user, you should first ensure that the files under your CLC Science Server installation directory have the appropriate permissions. The easiest way to do this is to recursively change the ownership of all the files in that directory to the user that will run the CLC Science Server process.

As a service:

On installation a link is created in /etc/init.d to the CLCScienceServer script. At this point, you need to configure it as a service. For example, on Red Hat systems,

We provide an example wrapper script for running the CLC Science Server process. You may find this convenient if you plan to run the process as a user other than the root user. The script is called clcserver-startupscript and can be found under the conf directory of the CLC Science Server installation area.

Please refer to your operating system documentation if you require further information about setting up services on your system.
