Info

Only the applications installed on the specific system are available for selection, any other applications in the list will be disabled in the Stay Alive preference pane.

nameadmin 14.2b

Start an application using Stay Alive:

  1. Make sure the application you are about to activate is currently not started.
  2. Activate the checkbox in front of the application to start it immediately and automatically after a restart or a crash.

It is also possible to optionally select a volume (or a folder on a volume) for each of the three application "groups" (just:play, just:live and just:in).

Normally (when a volume is not specified) and an application is selected to use the Stay Alive feature, that application will always be started by the system ( first after booting, then automatically whenever the application terminates for any reason).

When a volume or folder is specified, those applications in the relevant group will only be started when the specified volume/folder is mounted and present. This may be useful if you have a NAS, SAN or other types of file systems that must be mounted during system startup that may take some additional time before they are available.

In this case it is important not to start any ToolsOnAir applications that may rely on data from these file systems until the volume is available. By specifying such volumes in Stay Alive you can make sure that any ToolsOnAir applications are not started until the relevant volume/file system is available.

Warning

Make sure that the applications you are going to activate here in Stay Alive are quitted the same time you activate them. Activating an already started application will start a second instance of it which can cause any kind on issues.
