Question

What is the start/stop order for tomcat processes?

Answer

In Voyager 8.0 and higher, all services can be started and stopped with one command:

Start: /m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/tsvrctl start

Stop: /m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/tsvrctl stop

For older versions with individual start/stop scripts for each service:

• Stop processes in following order; many sites use only vwebv and vxws and should skip the stop commands for vprimo and vpds below. Wait 5-10 seconds between each command to allow previous process to fully stop before stopping the next.

/m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vwebv/tsvrctl stop

/m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vprimo/tsvrctl stop

/m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vpds/tsvrctl stop

/m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vxws/tsvrctl stop

• Start processes in the following order, again skipping any processes not normally in use, again waiting to ensure each process comes up before the next is started:

/m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vpds/tsvrctl start

/m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vprimo/tsvrctl start

/m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vxws/tsvrctl start

/m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vwebv/tsvrctl start

• On newer Solaris 10 installs, there is an SMF service that does the same thing. For your xxxdb, run the following command:

svcadm restart svc:/site/ExLibris/Voyager/xxxdb/Pwebvoyage:default
