Auto Starting Servers | Completing Post-Installation Tasks
70 OMNM 6.5.3 Installation Guide
By default, these scripts assume the OWAdmin user and a blank password, so if you have changed
the default password for OWAdmin, you must pass it to stopappserver.
Starting Linux Installations
Servers on standalone installation will have auto start enabled and reboot or restart of the OS will
auto start the servers. For manual start of the service, the operating system prompts user for the
root password for the following command lines (no such prompt appears for root user):
Application server:
$service oware start
Portal Server:
$service synergy start
In /etc/init.d , you can run the following:
#./oware start
#./synergy start
When you have autostart enabled, to start appserver and process monitor:
$startpm &
To stop appserver and process monitor
$stoppm
When process monitor is running, you can check the appserver status
$pmgetstatus
To stop the Application server process only
$pmstopall
To start the appserver again when process monitor is already running:
$pmstartall
To open a web client, go to this URL: [host IP address]:8080.
Auto Starting Servers
This section only applies to custom package for Distributed or HA installs. If you are installing
Mediation or Application servers, an option appears during installation to configure the server to
autostart when the server boots. The final installation screen asks whether you want to start the
Application server, so you do not need to start the server immediately after installation.
The startup sequence: Database server starts first, then Application server. Mediation server can
start any time before or after this sequence, and waits for Application server. See
Stopping Servers
on page 68 for instructions on stopping the Application server.
You can stop, start, and monitor the autostarted Application server, with command lines
(
pmstopall , pmstartall , and pmgetstatus ), or use a system tray tool for controlling the
Application server in Windows. As always, run
oware (Windows) or . /etc/.dsienv (Linux)
before running the command lines.
For security reasons,
pmstopall has security requirements similar to stopappserver . Here is
an example command line:
pmstopall <hostname>:1099 -u <username> -p <password>
