## Jobserver

After the installation is complete, the Jobserver needs to be started before it can be used.

### Windows

You can start or stop the service using the scripts in the Jobserver folder:&#x20;

* `startService.bat` for starting the service&#x20;
* `stopService.bat` for stopping the service

Or by opening the Windows Services window, selecting the `Migration Center Job Server` service and starting it.

Alternatively the server can be started in console mode using the `runConsole.bat` script.

### Linux

The  Linux Job Server can be started or stopped by running equivalent Linux scripts inside the “Jobserver/bin” folder

* `./startDaemon.sh` for starting the daemon
* `./stopDaemon.sh` for stopping the daemon

Instead of installing the Job Server as a service/daemon, you can run it in the terminal by executing the script `./runConsole.sh` in the bin folder.
