## Starting OpenJMS

To start the OpenJMS server, open a command prompt and type:

Windows

    cd %OPENJMS_HOME%\bin
    startup

Unix

    cd $OPENJMS_HOME/bin
    startup.sh

## Shutting down OpenJMS

To stop the OpenJMS server, open a command prompt and type:

Windows

    cd %OPENJMS_HOME%\bin
    shutdown

Unix

    cd $OPENJMS_HOME/bin
    shutdown.sh

If security is enabled, a valid user name and password is required to stop the OpenJMS server. E.g.:

Windows

    cd %OPENJMS_HOME%\bin
    shutdown -u admin -p openjms

Unix

    cd $OPENJMS_HOME/bin
    shutdown.sh -u admin -p openjms

In the above, the user name and password are those of the default administration user.
