Interacting with the platform daemon

Once Niagara has been installed, you will be able to control the platform daemon, 'niagarad', through the control script niagaradctl. This script can be found in the !/bin directory of your Niagara installation or from the symbolic link '/usr/bin/niagaradctl'.
Perform the following steps:
  1. At the command line, type niagaradctl, as shown:
    <user>@<host>:/usr/bin# niagaradctl
    Usage: n4d {start|stop|restart|status}

Where ‘n4d' stands for “Niagara 4 Daemon”, and it is the name presented to the operating system to associate with this service (niagarad). As you can see, with this script, you will have the ability to start, stop, restart and query the platform daemon.
