I have not used WebSphere on Linux. Could you set it up so it starts on some run levels, and not on some others? If you can set it up this way you could boot up to a run level that didn't start WebSpere when doing maintenance.
-----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jon Brock Sent: Monday, January 07, 2008 8:40 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Delayed start of WebSphere I have a few Linux guests which run WebSphere. There are times when applying maintenance, etc, that I need to reboot Linux on these guests. If I have WebSphere auto-start during the boot process then every time I boot I have to wait for WAS to finish coming up - something that takes several minutes - before I can even so much as sign on. Obviously, if I need to boot more than once, I end up having wasted a lot of time. What I would like is maybe a way for Linux to finish booting then give me a choice as to whether to start WAS; after a period of time - say, 30 seconds or a minute - it would just go ahead and auto-start WAS. Is anyone doing this sort of thing?
