Restarting components in a single-server IBM Business Automation Workflow environment

Server maintenance and software updates sometimes require a server reboot. You must manually restart the components in your IBM Business Automation Workflow environment on an AIX® or Linux® server. On a Windows server, the components restart automatically.

About this task

If your single-server IBM Business Automation Workflow environment is installed on a Windows server, all your components and applications restart automatically after a reboot.

You must have the passwords for your components and applications in order to complete the restart steps.
