4.1. Starting Red Hat JBoss Fuse
Abstract
The default way for deploying the Red Hat JBoss Fuse runtime is to deploy it as a standalone server with an active console. You can also deploy the runtime as a background process without a console.
Overview
The default way for deploying the Red Hat JBoss Fuse runtime is to deploy it as a standalone server with an active console. You can also deploy the runtime to run as a background process without a console.
Setting up your environment
You can start the JBoss Fuse runtime from the installation directory without doing any work. However, if you want to start it in a different folder you will need to add the
bin directory of your JBoss Fuse installation to the PATH environment variable, as follows:
Windows
set PATH=%PATH%;InstallDir\bin
*NIX
export PATH=$PATH,InstallDir/bin
Launching the runtime
If you are launching the JBoss Fuse runtime from the installation directory use the following command:
Windows
*NIX
If JBoss Fuse starts up correctly you should see the following on the console:
_ ____ ______ | | _ \ | ____| | | |_) | ___ ___ ___ | |__ _ _ ___ ___ _ | | _ / _ \/ __/ __| | __| | | / __|/ _ \ | |__| | |_) | (_) \__ \__ \ | | | |_| \__ \ __/ \____/|____/ \___/|___/___/ |_| \__,_|___/\___| JBoss Fuse (6.0.0.redhat-xxx) http://www.redhat.com/products/jbossenterprisemiddleware/fuse/ Hit '<tab>' for a list of available commands and '[cmd] --help' for help on a specific command. Hit '<ctrl-d>' or 'osgi:shutdown' to shutdown JBoss Fuse. JBossFuse:karaf@root>Launching the runtime in server mode
Launching in server mode runs Red Hat JBoss Fuse in the background, without a local console. You would then connect to the running instance using a remote console. See Section 8.2, “ Connecting and Disconnecting Remotely” for details.
To launch JBoss Fuse in server mode, run the following
Windows
*NIX
bin/fuse server
Alternatively, you can launch JBoss Fuse in server mode using the
start script in the InstallDir/bin directory.
Launching the runtime in client mode
In production environments you may want to have a runtime instance accessible using only a local console. In other words, you cannot connect to the runtime remotely. You can do this by launching the runtime in client mode using the following command:
Windows
*NIX
