The primary function of the control panel is to start or stop instances. However, you can also use it to check whether instances were started correctly and whether they are running in the correct operation mode; that is, whether automatic operation mode switching is possible.
To display an overview of operation modes and instances:
Start the Control Panel by choosing .
The control panel displays a list of the host systems and the instances in your system. The list contains:
Instance names
Status
Services running on your application server
Active operation mode
Select a server.
To find out the cause of a non-standard operation mode:
Choose .
The system displays a dialog box showing the details of the server.
The most frequent reason for an operation mode switch failing is inconsistencies in the total number of work processes or in the profiles.
When you have solved the problem, switch the operation mode manually from the Control Panel.
