zato start

Remember: If you're starting out with Zato, use Docker Quickstart. It's going to start a fully working environment for you in 5 minutes and then you can focus on your actual integration and automation work. Use the instructions below only if you're an advanced user.

Repeat: Use Docker Quickstart if you're new to Zato.

Overview

Starts Zato components, such as servers. The command works any Zato component, including Dashboard, the load-balancer and scheduler.

By default, the component is started in background and can be stopped with zato stop. Alternatively, it can be started in foreground and can be stopped with Ctrl-C.

Starting a component in foreground is particularly convenient during development because, when it is started in foreground, all of its logs are written to screen for immediate inspection.

Usage examples

$ zato start ~/dev3/server
OK
$

$ zato start ~/dev3/server --fg
