Overview
You have a clustered Aurea Process environment and you need to stop the Admin Server (eg: due to middleware activities in the production clustered environment), but you leave EJB Server and Portal Server running.
When restarting the Admin Server you would like to know whether is it ok to (re)start the Admin Server alone while EJB Server and Portal Server are running. Or is it required to restart the application completely, including EJB Server and Portal.
Information
The only supported restart method and the only supported restart sequence is the one described in our Aurea Process Business Manager Clustering Guide.
Stop all servers in the following order:
- Stop Proxy Server
- Stop BizLogic and BizPulse Server
- Stop Portal Servers
- Stop EJB Servers
- Stop Admin Server
The (re)starting order is the reverse of the above.
As you can see, stopping the Admin Server is the last step, and it is required to stop EJB and Portal Servers, too. We recommend following the stop and start sequence as per our documentation.
