Managing Application Services

You use this procedure to perform various operations such as prepare, start, stop, unprepare, relocate, troubleshoot, on multiple application services.

To perform the operations such as Prepare, Prepare and Start, Make prepared for Start, or Relocate you must assign a resource.

Prerequisites

You have assigned a resource to a service on which you want to perform operations.

More information: Assigning a Resource to the Service

To perform start or relocate operations, you must ensure that the services, on which your current service is dependant, are started.

To perform relocate operation, you must ensure that the services are part of the adaptive landscape.

Procedure

Launch the ACC application using the URL https://<host>:<port>/acc
Choose Services tab page.
If you want to perform operation on set of services select the appropriate pool, else select individual services.
Identify the necessary operation based on the state of the service from the table below, and perform the operation:

Service State	Operation	Result
Running	Stop	Terminates the service
	Stop and Unprepare	Terminates the service, restores the file system to its original state in the central system.
	Relocate (Running)	Moves the service to another resource
Not Running	Relocate (Not Running)	Moves the service to another resource
	Start	Starts the service on a resource
	Unprepare	Restores the file system to its original state in the central system.
Initial	Prepare	Moves the file system to the assigned resource from the central system.
	Prepare and Start	Moves the file system to the assigned resource from the central system, and starts the service
Running	Restart	Restarts the service on the same resource
Unknown	Forced (Prepare, Start, Stop, Unprepare and Relocate)	The result of the forced operations is same as the respective operations mentioned above.

You can perform a forced operation not only on the services with state unknown, but also during some emergency cases such as server crash, down time, ad-hoc maintenance, and so on.

You can perform forced operations only when you have the OperationsExceptionHandling permission set.
