Starting services

You may have to start a Conductor service if you created a Spark instance group and did not specify the service to start automatically.

Before you begin

• You must be a cluster administrator or have the Services Control permission to start a service.
• You must have created a Spark instance group, the process by which services are created.

About this task

If a Conductor service is not specified to start automatically, you must start the service from the cluster management console or from the CLI.

• To start a Conductor service from the cluster management console, follow these steps:
  1. Select Spark Instance Groups.
  2. Select a Spark instance group.
  3. Click the Services tab.
  4. Select the service that you want to start and click Start.
• To start a Conductor service from the command line, use the egosh service view to determine if the service is in the DEFINED or ERROR state, then use the egosh service start command. For more information, see service.

Results

The service is placed in the STARTED state. Once the service is started and running, it creates and runs service instances.
