Application Management Console Take Action commands
Use the Application Management Console Take Action commands to start or stop applications, transactions, and profiles, or delete robotic scripts from within the Tivoli Enterprise Portal. These commands can be used in automatic situations and as isolated take action requests.
Using Take Action commands
Tip: You can also start, stop and delete applications,
transactions, and profiles, and robotic scripts from the Application Management Configuration Editor.
Run a Take Action command using either
of the following methods:
- In the Tivoli Enterprise Portal, right-click an Application Management Console node such as Robotic Scripts, and select Take Action.
- Use the tacmd executeAction command. See Using tacmd commands in the Administrator's Guide for more information.

ITCAM for Transactions contains the following Take Action commands for Application Management Console:
| Take Action | Command | Parameters | Description | Impact |

Display in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal
The
navigator items are displayed with different icons to indicate the
object state:
- Stopped
If the object is stopped, its navigator item is inactive (grayed out). The object is stopped when everything included in this object is stopped. For example, if all transactions within an application are stopped, the application is displayed as grey in the navigation tree.
- Started
When the navigator item displays normally, it is in the started state.
