Dear Santosh

Restarting the SIA(Server Intelligence agent) service would restart all servers on the system.

Hello Anil,

I appreciate your help on this issue. We want to stop and start individual servers under the SIA.

We found the below information from the KB: 1286926.

Below are sample commands on Wiindows :

"C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\ccm.exe" -managedstop machine1.WebIntelligenceProcessingServer -cms machine1:6500 -username SysAdmin -password 35%bC5@5 -authentication secLDAP

"C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\ccm.exe" -managedstart machine1.WebIntelligenceProcessingServer -cms machine1:6500 -username SysAdmin -password 35%bC5@5 -authentication secLDAP

"C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\ccm.exe" -managedrestart machine1.WebIntelligenceProcessingServer -cms machine1:6500 -username SysAdmin -password 35%bC5@5 -authentication secLDAP

To enable/disable the same service use the following without the "managed" parameter

"C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\ccm.exe" -enable machine1.WebIntelligenceProcessingServer -cms machine1:6500 -username SysAdmin -password 35%bC5@5 -authentication secLDAP

"C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\ccm.exe" -disable machine1.WebIntelligenceProcessingServer -cms machine1:6500 -username SysAdmin -password 35%bC5@5 -authentication secLDAP

To specify which CMS to log on to:

-cms <cmsname:port#>

If a CMS is not specified, it will default to your local machine name.

To specify a user name when logging onto the CMS:

-username <username>

If a username is not specified, it will default to Administrator.

To specify a password when logging onto the CMS:

-password <password>

If a password is not specified, it will default to a blank.

To specify an authentication type to use when logging onto the CMS:

-authentication <authentication type>

If an authentication type is not specified, it will default to secEnterprise.

Hi santosh,

Can we have any other procedure to re-start SIA -BO 4.1 (other than commands)

Hi,

if you are on Windows you can use the Central Configuration Manager (CCM) oder the Services Snap- In from the Windows Server OS.

For LINUX/UNIX, as already mentioned, startservers and stopservers scripts.

Do you have any command to restart tomcat and SIA in 4.1?

In Windows you can use net start and net stop to start and stop Services.  Google has a huge amount of information on this but it's pretty basic.

Also someone has already posted a very comprehensive solution on SCN:

Santosh,

Each Server instance has a service registered on its name. You can check their names from Service categories in servers tab in Central configuration Manager (cmc). You can restart/ stop/ start the service with the following commands.

net start <Service name> to start a service

net stop <Service name> to stop a service

net pause <Service name> to pause a service

net continue <Service name> to resume a service

Hi,

in an UNIX/LINUX Environment you can use the ./startservers and ./stopservers scripts to stop and start the whole BI4 instance.

If you want to start/stop only certain Servies, ise the ./ccm.sh script.

Check -help on each command for more information.

Regards

-Seb.
