Note: The procedure described in this section applies to Oracle Infrastructure Web services only. Note: You need to wait approximately 30 seconds or the equivalent of the configured Graceful Shutdown Timeout time between stopping and restarting the application. During this time, the server is allowing all global transactions to complete before shutting down the application. If you do not wait the configured Graceful Shutdown Timeout time, then the application will not be restarted appropriately and you will not be able to access it. To avoid waiting the graceful shutdown timeout period, you can restart the application twice. Note: The procedures described in this section apply to Oracle Infrastructure Web services and providers only.
