2.8. Running the Administrator

To provide access to the SD card, the Direct-Link Administrator must be started after every power-up of the computer. If running on a network in QNX 4, the administrator must be run on the node where the card is located. Under normal operation the administrator is started in the background with no command line arguments.

[Note]

After running the Administrator, you must run the Loader Program.
