Chapter 2. Setting up a Content Manager OnDemand instance 29
Ensure that when you stop the instance, you stop the correct instance. Y ou might stop the 
instance by running kill on the process identifier (PID) of the accepting process or by 
running the following command:
arssockd -I ondmd950 -T
Connecting to an instance
To connect to an instance, the client must log on to the correct library server. Add a server in 
the administrative or user client by identifying the name of the library server and the port 
number to use. The port number that you specify must be the same port number that you 
specified in the ARS.INI file.
Running commands
In general, the -h or -I parameters are used to determine the name of the Content Manager 
OnDemand instance to process. Y ou must specify the parameter and the instance name if 
any of the following items are true:
/SM590000The name of the default instance is not ARCHIVE.
/SM590000Y ou are running more than one instance on the same system and you want to process an 
instance other than the default instance.
/SM590000Y ou are running the program on a system other than the system where the library server is 
running.
The programs locate the specified instance name in the ARS.INI file to determine the TCP/IP 
address, host name alias, or fully qualified host name of the system on which the library 
server is running and other information about the instance. The ARSADM, ARSADMIN, ARSDOC, 
and ARSLOAD programs support the -h parameter. The ARSDB, ARSLOAD, ARSMAINT, and ARSTBLSP 
programs support the -I parameter. 
For the ARSLOAD program, if both the -h and -I parameters are specified, the value of the last 
parameter that is specified is used, for example:
arsload -g applicationgroup -u userid -p password -I ondmd950 test.data
arsmaint -cmsv -I ondmd950
2.4  Implementing a Content Manager OnDemand instance on 
IBM i
Always refer to the product documentation of your release for the specific steps to follow. A 
Content Manager OnDemand instance is a logical server environment with its own library that 
contains a unique set of database files. An instance is defined in the ARS.INI file by naming 
the instance, which identifies the name of the library that is used by the instance. All of the 
database files that belong to an instance are created in only one Coded Character Set ID 
(CCSID). 
Y ou can run multiple instances on the same server, with each instance configured differently: 
/SM590000For separate test and production environments 
/SM590000For databases that use different CCSIDs 
In addition, each Content Manager OnDemand for i instance must run in a single CCSID.
