Starting a Server Configuration Using Defined Values from the Command Line

Open a command prompt window and navigate to the installation folder of the StarTeam Server.
Type the following at the command prompt:
```
starteamserver -start "ConfigurationName"
```
Note: You can also start a server configuration to override the defined values using:
```
starteamserver -start "ConfigurationName" [options]
```

Although you do not need to shut down a server configuration to perform a backup, you may need to do so to perform other maintenance tasks.

Note: If you have an Enterprise Advantage license and if you are running the StarTeam Server as a service and the Notification Agent as a dependent service, you cannot shut down the server configuration unless the Notification Agent service is shut down first.
