Using Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console to Start and Stop Java Components

Starting and Stopping Oracle Business Intelligence 4-7 Use the following commands to view status, start, stop, and restart the system components using OPMN on Windows for UNIX use the command .opmnctl. ■ opmnctl status Shows the component names and the status of all system components, as shown in Figure 4–4 . Figure 4–4 Status of Components in OPMN ■ opmnctl startall Starts OPMN and all Oracle Business Intelligence system components. The bi_server1 Managed Server must be running before you can start OPMN. For information, see Section 4.8.1, Confirming If the Managed Server Is Running and Starting It and Section 4.8, Starting and Stopping Managed Servers on Windows and UNIX. ■ opmnctl start Starts OPMN only. ■ opmnctl startproc ias-component= component_name Starts a particular system component. For example, where coreapplication_ obips1 is Oracle BI Presentation Services: opmnctl startproc ias-component=coreapplication_obips1 You view system component names in Fusion Middleware Control by displaying the system components Availability region of the Availability tab in the Capacity Management page, and expanding the required entry in the Name column. For more information, see Section 2.2.2, Using Fusion Middleware Control to Manage Oracle Business Intelligence System Components. System component names are displayed in the format coreapplication_component_name for example coreapplication_obips1 is the name of the Oracle BI Presentation Services component. ■ opmnctl stopall Stops all managed system components. ■ opmnctl stopproc ias-component= component_name Stops a particular system component. ■ opmnctl restartproc ias-component= component_name Restarts a particular system component. ■ opmnctl shutdown Stops opmn and all managed system components. 4-8 System Administrators Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition The OPMN configuration file is in the ORACLE_ INSTANCEconfigOPMNopmnopmn.xml directory on UNIX and specifies the exact environment that is used to start each Oracle Business Intelligence system component. It contains the PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH values for the system components and the port number for OPMN and optional SSL configuration. You can configure OPMN to start Oracle Business Intelligence system components automatically when a Linux operating system starts, and to stop when the operating system shuts down. To configure OPMN to start and stop automatically on Linux, you must include the following commands in the OPMN startup or shutdown scripts respectively: daemon ORACLE_INSTANCEbin .opmnctl startall daemon ORACLE_INSTANCEbin .opmnctl stopall For more information, see the operating system documentation.

4.5.2 Using a Windows Service to Start and Stop System Components

On Windows, the Oracle Business Intelligence system components are controlled by the Oracle Process Manager OPMN Windows Service. To view and manage Windows Services, use one of the following methods: ■ Run the following command: C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.msc ■ From the Start Menu, select Programs, then Administrative Tools, then Services. The bi_server1 Managed Server must be running before you can start OPMN. For information, see Section 4.8.1, Confirming If the Managed Server Is Running and Starting It and Section 4.8, Starting and Stopping Managed Servers on Windows and UNIX. To start or restart Oracle Business Intelligence system components using a Windows Service: 1. In the Services window, locate and start the Oracle Process Management instance_number option. The Oracle Business Intelligence system components take as long as a minute to start. If the Oracle Process Manager fails to start, then errors are logged. Use Fusion Middleware Control to check log file entries and determine why a service has failed. For information, see Chapter 8, Diagnosing and Resolving Issues in Oracle Business Intelligence.

2. If you run Microsoft IIS, then start the World Wide Web Publishing service.

3. In the ODBC Driver Manager, test that the DSN called AnalyticsWeb_

coreapplication of type Oracle BI Server connects to the Oracle BI Server. Use the user name and password case-sensitive that was created during installation for the demonstration repository database. Note: In the Microsoft Windows environment, the Services Manager returns a false error that it cannot start the server. This Microsoft Services Manager issue causes the Services Manager to time out after 5 minutes. Refreshing the Services window, however, shows that Oracle Business Intelligence is still starting.
