# Start the server

When you finish defining your configuration settings as described in Configure site settings, start OpenText Software Delivery Management.

To start the server:

1. Log in as either the root or sudo user.

2. Run the octane service to start the server. Run:

       systemctl start octane

The installation is complete only when the "Server is ready!" message is shown in the /opt/octane/log/wrapper.log file. If you do not see this message, correct the errors shown in the log.

Tip: When you first start using OpenText Software Delivery Management, you automatically receive a Trial license which gives you a 90-day trial for 100 users. For details, seeTrial license.

Next steps:

- Log in
- Cluster configuration: If you successfully installed and logged into OpenText Software Delivery Management on the first cluster node, continue installing on additional cluster nodes.
- If connecting to a database server or an LDAP server over a secure channel (SSL/TLS), or for license sharing with OpenText Application Quality Management, configure trust. For details, see Configure trust on the server.
