Fred, Take a look in the aie001 script with an editor like vi or just cat the file. You will see the command to start the AIE instance a few lines down from the top, and in the middle you will see a matching command to stop the instance. The stop command looks at the table of running processes (that's the ps command) for a process containing the data exchange instance name, chooses that process ID number and kills it.
You can manually use the kill command yourself, it will have the same effect. There will also be an aie002, aie003, etc, one for each instance. Here's the bug: In older versions of AIE the stop command section in all of these looks for the name of the first defined AIE instance, even if the start command uses the name of the second or third data exchange instance. You will need to edit the aie002, aie003, etc, so that the instance names exactly match. Chances are your script will start a process named 003 but is trying to kill a process named 001 Drop some mail on me off list if you need an example of the edited file (Solaris, but similar enough) Hope this helps Doug -- Doug Blair +1 224-558-5462 Sent from my iPad2 Auto-corrected typos, misspellings and non-sequiturs are gratefully attributed to Steve Jobs :-) On Jan 31, 2012, at 2:17 AM, Frex Popo <[email protected]> wrote: > ** > Hi all, > > This is aie 7.1 > > Not very familiar with eie in a unix environment and trying to shutdown the > service. > I see the following when I do a ps -ef: > > /usr/ar/arserver/aie/bmc/apps/aie/remedy/service/bin/eie -i /usr/ar/arse > > Looking at the bin directory I see an aie001 which I think is the instance > which was created at instalation time. > The manual also states that to you to stop this instance you just issue > > ./aie001 stop > > this returns the message: no process running. > > I tried with eie but all I get as output is the options of the executable. > This is production so don´t fancy the option of killing any process. > > Any thoughts? > > Many thanks in advance > > frex > > > _attend WWRUG12 www.wwrug.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: "Where the Answers Are"
