When the server configuration file contains the CONSOLE TOOL_TRAY keyword, the FairCom Server starts in background, displaying only a FairCom DB icon in the Windows tool tray. This feature is especially nice for ‘simple’ user sites, with no system administrative expert.

This keyword is not supported when the server is running as a service.
The FairCom Server for Windows accepts the ‘&’ symbol, (“^&” for Windows Server), as a command line parameter to execute in CONSOLE TOOL_TRAY mode. The following example launches the server in “background-tool-tray” mode:
C:\server> faircom &
or
C:\server> ctsrvr &
