Starting and stopping the StorMan service

Upon startup, StorMan reads its configuration file. The server is configured to listen on port 4178.

Once the StorMan server has started and performed some initialization activities, it will listen for and answer requests from clients.

The StorMan service is configured to start automatically as a Windows service.

To start or stop StorMan on Windows systems use the service manager.

To check if StorMan is running, check Windows services for “StorMan Service” or enter in a command shell: 

storcheck

For StorMan server access from the network, the firewall has to open access to port 4178.
