Starting the Surround SCM Server

An administrative user must make sure the Surround SCM Server is running before users can access Surround SCM.

Windows

If the Surround SCM Server is installed as a service, it starts automatically. If the server is installed as an application, you must start it manually. Choose All Programs > Perforce > Surround SCM > Surround SCM Server from the Start menu.

If the server is installed as a service but not running or you need to restart it, see the Windows documentation for information about starting a service.

Linux

Enter /usr/bin/surroundscm start.

If you need to restart the server, enter /usr/bin/surroundscm stop and then restart the server.
