3.6. Starting the server

If you have installed BRMS using either the Installer or via the EAP6 bundle install, you can now start your server in one of two modes.

Note

If you installed BRMS using the generic deployable version on Red Hat Java Web Server, the instructions for download and install also contain the instructions for starting the server. You can ignore the following discussion.
The default startup script, standalone.sh that Red Hat JBoss BRMS ships with is optimized for performance. To run your server in the performance mode, do the following:
  1. On the command line, move into the $SERVER_HOME/bin/ directory.
  2. In a Unix environment run: 
    ./standalone.sh
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    In a Windows environment run: 
    ./standalone.bat
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
Red Hat JBoss BRMS also ships with a separate script, standalone-secure.sh that is optimized for security. This script applies a security policy by default that protects against a known security vulnerability.

Note

It is recommended that production environments use standalone-secure.sh script.

Warning

The use of a security manager imposes a significant performance penalty that you should be aware of. The tradeoff between security and performance must be made by taking into consideration individual circumstances. See Section 3.7, “Java Security Manager and performance management”.
To run your server in the secure mode with this script, do the following:
  1. On the command line, move into the $SERVER_HOME/bin/ directory.
  2. In a Unix environment run: 
    ./standalone-secure.sh
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    In a Windows environment run: 
    ./standalone-secure.bat
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
