3. Stop any Infrastructure instances that contain only a Metadata Repository
instance.
4. Stop any Infrastructure instance that contains Oracle Internet Directory. If the
same server contains an OID instance and a Metadata Repository instance, stop
the Metadata Repository instance first.
The Application Server Control Console can also be used to start, stop, and restart
components:
1. From the OracleAS Welcome page, click the link to the Application Server
Control Console home page.
2. On the Application Server Control Console home page, scroll to the System
Components section.
3. In the Select column, choose the components you want to start, stop, or restart.
4. Click the Start, Stop, or Restart button on the top right of the System
Components section.
You can also use the Start All or Stop All buttons, but neither works for the Log Loader
component. You have to use the component level buttons to start and stop Log Loader.
You can also enable or disable components from the Application Server Control Console
home page by clicking on the Enable/Disable Components link. On the page that is
displayed, components or groups of components can be enabled or disabled. Disabled
components are not started with the other instance components and are not listed in the
System Components list.
Additional component level controls are available on the individual component home
pages.
Administering OracleAS Components
Each OracleAS component has its own administration tools. Most of these are available
as web pages. There are also a few key command line administration tools. One
example of a command line administration tool is the opmnctl command, introduced
above. It is used to administer Oracle Process Manager and Notification Server, which is
used to manage and monitor most components. The opmnctl command can be used to
get the status of all components on your OracleAS server, as shown in the example
below.
# $ORACLE_HOME/bin/opmnctl status
