Enhancement request to start and stop PA on Linux using Symbolic Link on RHEL OS

Tm1 server does not start and stop properly when using the symbolic link on RHEL OS. 

The Cognos configuration does not show the correct status of Tm1 server. Also, launching Cognos Configuration using the symbolic path, does not show correctly if the TM1 server is started or stopped. 

Planning Analytics Product should be enhanced to allow Symbolic paths when doing start and stop service.

The current documentation insists to use relative paths.

    Will not implement. Start/Stop and running TM1 databases as a service can be scripted in Linux.
