Shutting down a UNIX/Linux TM1 Server running in background mode

To shut down the TM1® Server running in background mode, run the shutdown utility, tm1srvstop.exe, located in the pa_install_directory/bin or pa_install_directory/bin64 directory.

The shutdown utility tm1srvstop.exe accepts the following parameters:

Parameter	Description
-n	Required The name of the TM1 Server you want to shut down. Note that this server must have been started in background mode.
-v	Required IP address of the Admin Server on which the TM1 Server is registered.
-user	Required User name of the person bringing down the server. This person must have the necessary access and privileges to shut down the server.
-pwd	Required Password for the person bringing down the server.
-time	Optional Delay, in seconds, at which the server will be shut down after running shutdown_tm1s.sh
-cancel	Optional Cancels any previously issued shutdown_tm1s.sh commands. Valid values are T and F.
-unsave	Optional By default, TM1 saves the data before a TM1 Server is shut down with the shutdown_tm1s.sh command. The -unsave parameter shuts down a server without saving the data. Valid values are T and F.

For example, the following command line allows a user named Admin with a password of Administrator to shut down a TM1 Server named TM1SERV registered on an Admin Host located at 207.110.100.206. The command line indicates a 30-second interval between the time the command is issued and the time the server shuts down. The server is shut down without saving the data.

tm1srvstop.exe -n TM1SERV -v 207.110.100.206 -user ADMIN
-pwd Administrator -time 30 -unsave T

Alternatively, you can use shutdown_tm1s.sh to shut down a server. This method has the following limitations, however:

The shutdown_tm1s.sh script works only on the local machine where TM1 Server is running.
If you use the startup_tm1s.sh and shutdown_tm1s.sh scripts, you must ensure that the following line exists in the TM1 Server configuration file (tm1s.cfg): RunningInBackground=T.
