## 11.2. Starting and Stopping the EKM Server in Console Mode

EKM installs a set of control scripts that can be used to start and stop the EKM server in console mode. Control scripts for EKM cluster node(s) and the EKM cluster database server are located as follows:

- EKM cluster nodes: `EKM_NODE_ROOT182/bin`

Follow the instructions below to start or stop an EKM server in console mode.

Starting EKM:

1. Start the front-end web server (if applicable).

2. Start the cluster database server:

   On the cluster database server, run the `mysqld_start.(cmd|sh)` control script.

   Note: The cluster database server MUST be started before starting any of the cluster nodes.

3. Start each cluster node:

   On each cluster node, run the `ekm_start.(cmd|sh)` control script.

Stopping EKM:

1. Stop each cluster node:

   On each cluster node, run the `ekm_stop.(cmd|sh)` control script.
