Starting all application services by running a script (Windows)

Applies to: On premises

The StartAllServers.cmd script, which is included with IBM OpenPages®, starts all OpenPages application services on an application server.

Note: This information applies only to Microsoft Windows environments.

About this task

The script uses the following syntax:
StartAllServers.cmd [--clean]

The --clean option is not necessary for normal operation. IBM® Support might ask you to use this option when providing an interim fix, or if there is a suspected problem with the cached data. If you use this option, the server will be required to recompute any cached data at the next startup, which might take more time than a restart that reuses cached data.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the OpenPages application server as a user with administrative privileges or as the OpenPages installation user, opuser.
  2. Open a Command Prompt window (using the Run as administrator option) and do the following:
    1. Navigate to the <OP_HOME>\bin directory.

      Where <OP_HOME> is the installation location of the OpenPages application, for example: c:\IBM\OpenPages.

    2. Run the following command: 
      StartAllServers.cmd
    The log file is: <OP_HOME>\wlp-usr\servers\<server_name>\logs\messages.log
  3. If you have horizontal application servers, repeat these steps on each of them.
