| File name | More information |
|---|---|
|
ccmexec.bin |
This service is equivalent to the ccmexc service on a Windows-based client. It is responsible for all communications with Configuration Manager site system roles, and also communicates with the nwserver.bin service to collect hardware inventory from the local computer. For a list of supported command line arguments, run ccmexec -h |
|
nwserver.bin |
This service is the CIM server. The CIM server provides a framework for pluggable software modules called providers. Providers interact with Linux and UNIX computer resources and collect the hardware inventory data. For example, the process provider for a Linux computer collects data associated with the Linux operating system processes. |
The following table lists commands that you can use to start, stop, or restart the client services (ccmexec.bin and nwserver.bin) on each version of Linux or UNIX. When you start or stop the ccmexec service, the nwserver service also starts or stops.
