Runtime Startup

If the default runtime startup command is used:

java -jar server.jar

a single-VM instance will be created using the configuration specified in runtimes/vm. Alternative configurations can be used by specifying the runtime name as shown below. The runtime name will map to a configuration contained under the {{runtimes} directory:

java -jar server.jar controller  -- launches a runtime using the configuration under {{runtimes/controller}} 
java -jar server.jar participant -- launches a runtime using the configuration under {{runtimes/participant}}  
java -jar server.jar foo -- launches a custom runtime using the configuration under {{runtimes/foo image}} 

Note it is possible to run multiple runtime instances from a single disk image. In this case, the image will contain multiple configurations under the runtimes directory. Each instance can then be started by specifying the runtime name, for example:

java -jar server.jar foo
java - jar server.jar foo2

Clean Startup

To start the runtime in clean mode, use the clean command:

java -jar server.jar clean

Note starting the runtime in clean mode will delete information stored in the data directory, including transaction recovery logs.
