Only a FOXMAN‑UN administrator can start and stop the FOXMAN‑UN core component, either by using the Remote Admin Tool (RAT) or from the command line. After installation, the core must be started manually.

After a reboot in a setup without standby server, the FOXMAN‑UN system including the base and core services is started automatically. Stopping of the core occurs together with the system shutdown.

In a setup with warm/cold standby server, the core is not starting automatically.

For the purpose of activating changes in the FOXMAN‑UN configuration file, just the core can be stopped and then started again.
