# Start Query Manipulation Server

The following sections describe the different ways that you can start QMS.

Before you can start the QMS, you must start the License Server.

## Start QMS on Microsoft Windows

- Double-click the `QMS.exe` file in your component installation directory.

- Start the QMS service from a system dialog box. QMS must be installed as a Windows Service. See Install an IDOL Component as a Service on Windows.

  1. Display the Windows Services dialog box.

  2. Select the QMS service for the component, and click Start to start the component.

  3. Click Close to close the Services dialog box.

  Tip: You can also configure the Windows Service to run automatically when you start the machine.

- Start QMS from the command line. For more information, refer to the IDOL Getting Started Guide.

## Start QMS on UNIX

- Start the IDOL component service from the command line. The component must be installed as a service. See Install an IDOL Component as a Service on Linux. You can use one of the following commands to start the service:

  - On systemd Linux platforms:

        systemctl start QMS

  - On System V Linux platforms:

        service QMS start

  - On Solaris platforms (using System V):

        /etc/init.d/QMS start

  Tip: You can also configure the service to run automatically when you start the machine.

- Start QMS from the command line. For more information, refer to the IDOL Getting Started Guide.

- Use the start script (`start-QMS.sh`).

  Note: In most cases, HPE recommends that you use the provided init scripts instead.
