How to Stop and Start the Extreme Management Center Server

This Help topic provides steps for manually stopping and starting the Extreme Management Center (NetSight) server components (Management Center Database and Management Center Server).

Instructions on:

Linux

The Management Center Server components can be controlled using their own stop and start scripts:

    <installdir>/scripts/stopserver.sh

    <installdir>/scripts/startserver.sh

Windows

You can manually stop and start the Management Center Server components from the Management Center Services Manager on the server system.

  1. Go to the Taskbar Notification Area of your desktop (on the lower right of your screen, unless you've relocated your Taskbar).
  2. Right-click the Services Manager icon . (If you don't see the icon, you can start the Services Manager from the Start > Programs or All Programs menu; select Startup > Extreme Management Center (NetSight) Services Manager.)
  3. Select the appropriate Management Center Server menu option.
    • Stop Server and Database - Stops both the Management Center Server and Database.
    • Stop Server - Stops only the Management Center Server. 
    • Restart Server - Stops the server and then starts it up again immediately, or just starts the server if the server is already stopped. If the Management Center Database is not running, it is also started.

The color of the arrow on the Management Center Services Manager icon indicates the state of the Management Center Server and Database:

  •  -- A green arrow indicates the Management Center Server and Database are running.
  •  -- A yellow arrow indicates the Management Center Database is running but the Server is down.
  •  -- A red arrow indicates the Management Center Server and Database are both down.
  •  -- An orange arrow indicates the Management Center Server is running but the Database is down. This is an error condition and requires that you restart both the Management Center Server and Database.
