SAS 9.1.3 Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide

Starting, Stopping, and Pausing Servers R Use SAS Management Console to Pause or Resume the SAS Metadata Server 33
It is possible to configure your system so that certain servers or spawners run as
daemons.
For example, to make the metadata server run as a daemon, you can copy the
MetadataServer.sh script to the boot directory of your platform. Then add the needed
information and links to the host’s start and stop commands so that the metadata
server is started at boot time and stopped at shutdown time.
For more information, see your UNIX system administrator or the system
administration guide for your platform.
Starting and Stopping SAS Servers on z/OS
On a z/OS system, follow these steps to start or stop a server:
1 Log on as the SAS User (for example, sas).
2 Each server is associated with a different started task. To start a server, use the
following console command:
START started-task-name
To stop a server, use the following console command.
STOP started-task-name
Note: You can perform the equivalent of a restart by stopping and then starting a
server. R
Messages are written to the system log when the SAS Metadata Server, the SAS
OLAP Server, or the SAS/SHARE Server is started or stopped. Automated tools can
scan the system log to determine the current operational state of these servers. The log
messages are displayed with the prefix SAH, as shown in the following examples:
+SAH0000I: Server SAS Metadata Server(port-number), Status starting.
+SAH0000I: Server SAS Metadata Server(port-number), Status running.
+SAH0000I: Server SAS Metadata Server(port-number), Status stopping.
+SAH0000I: Server SAS Metadata Server(port-number), Status stopped.
Use SAS Management Console to Stop the SAS Metadata Server
To use SAS Management Console to stop the SAS Metadata Server, follow these steps:
1 Expand the Metadata Manager node, and right-click Active Server.
2 From the menu that appears, select Stop.
You can also use the following procedures, which apply to all of the SAS servers:
