Managing Application-Related Services
All the services required for successfully running and accessing vCenter Chargeback Manager are configured
to start automatically when the machine is powered on and the operating system is started. You can also
manually control these services.
If the database service corresponding to the vCenter Chargeback Manager database stops, then the data
collector services stop automatically after a period of time. If the data collector services stop, then you must
manually start the data collector services after restarting the vCenter Chargeback Manager database service.
If you start the vCenter Chargeback Manager service, before starting the corresponding database service, then
you must manually restart the vCenter Chargeback Manager service after restarting the database service.
If vCenter Chargeback Manager, the corresponding database, and the data collectors are installed on different
machines, then you must individually start each of the services. You must start the services in the following
order:
1 vCenter Chargeback Manager database service
2 vCenter Chargeback Manager service
3 Services for each data collector installed
Prerequisites
Before starting any of the application-related services, ensure that the database service corresponding to the
vCenter Chargeback Manager database is started and is running without any issues.
