The start-ds command provides a “quiet” option ( -Q or --quiet) that suppresses output during the startup process unless a significant error occurs. You can use this option in a startup script.

1. Create a shell script and add the following start-ds command.
   
   install-dir/bin/start-ds --quiet
   
2. Run the script.
