If the server needs to be started or stopped manually on AIX platforms, use the System Resource Controller (SRC) of the operating system.
To start Tectia Server, enter command:
startsrc -s ssh-tectia-server
To stop Tectia Server, enter command:
stopsrc -s ssh-tectia-server
On AIX, using startsrc starts two ssh-server-g3 processes. One process is so-called service launcher that interfaces with the SRC and the actual SSH server process. By using a separate service launcher, the SRC is able to start a new server process in the case that old server process has been stopped but it is still serving open connections.
You can also use ssh-server-ctl (Tectia Server control utility) to start and stop the server, but it will actually call the AIX system resource controller.
To start Tectia Server with the control utility, enter:
ssh-server-ctl start
To stop Tectia Server with the control utility, enter:
ssh-server-ctl stop
