Stopping Connectivity Manager interfaces
(Topic number: 113766)
5.
During the IMPAX upgrade, you can prevent the loss of clinical patient updates from hospital
information systems by stopping data bound for the Connectivity Manager, or by stopping the
Connectivity Manager’s outbound queues. The preferred method is to stop inbound interfaces,
which prevents the Connectivity Manager from receiving incoming messages.
Coordinate with hospital information system personnel to confirm that they are capable of holding
messages in queues. If the information system queues can be stopped, also stop the Connectivity
Manager’s inbound interfaces.
To stop Connectivity Manager interfaces
1.
In Connectivity Manager, open Service Tools.
The Device Manager displays a list of devices and interfaces and their status.
2.
To re-sort and group all device classes, click Class.
3. Scroll down to view CMSI and HL7 class devices.
4. Note which HL7 In and CMSI In interfaces are started. These interfaces must be restarted after
the IMPAX upgrade.
5. Select the checkbox beside each of the started inbound interfaces.
6.
Click Stop.
The status of each selected interface changes to Stopped.
Stopping Connectivity Manager queues
(Topic number: 67550)
6.
If the Connectivity Manager’s inbound devices have not been stopped, stop the IMPAX outbound
DM Out and impax_report_server queues prior to shutting down IMPAX for the upgrade. Messages
in stopped queues are not processed and remain in the queue until the queue is restarted. Outbound
queues are restarted automatically if the Agfa Connectivity service is restarted, or if the Connectivity
Manager server is restarted.
To stop Connectivity Manager queues
1.
In Connectivity Manager, open Service Tools and click Queue Manager.
2. In the Queue List table, select the checkbox beside each queue belonging to a device with a DM
Out or impax_report_server component.
3.
Click Stop.
The status of the queues changes to Stopped.
