Description

The vserver start command starts data access on a Vserver.

Parameters

This specifies the name of the Vserver on which the data access is to be started. This operation is only supported on a data Vserver.

The name must be of 47 characters length or less.
[-foreground {true|false}] - Foreground Process

This specifies if the vserver start command should be executed in the foreground or background. If you do not enter this parameter, it is set to true , and the vserver start command is executed in the foreground.

[-force <true>] - Force Vserver Start
