Operations
This chapter describes the following Cisco Carrier Sensitive Routing application operations:

Activating CSR
This section provides instructions on running single and multiple instances of the CSR application. The
CSR application typically is installed to run at one instance on a dedicated machine, although it can be
run at multiple instances on the same machine.
Single Instance
Before activating the CSR application, the postgreSQL database must be installed and set up for use. A
database named “csrdb” must be loaded into the application. You can use either of the following methods
to activate the CSR application.
CSR as a Daemon
The daemon file is located in directory /etc/init.d/csr_init, and it accepts only the start parameter.
Step 1 To activate CSR, enter the following command:
csr_init start
You may be prompted for the postgres (UNIX user) password.
Step 2 To verify that CSR is running, enter the following command:
ps –ef command
You also can check the syslog files for the first message that the CSR prints to the logs. The message
should be a startup message.
