You can start a mediation module that is not running (has a status
of Stopped) or stop an module that is running (has a status of Started). To
change the status of a mediation module, you start or stop the application
used to deploy the module.
Before you begin
Before you can start or stop the application for a mediation module,
you must have deployed the mediation module into
WebSphere ESB,
as described in
Deploying a mediation module. This
installs the application onto an appropriate server (or server cluster).
Why and when to perform this task
To use the services of a mediation module and associated components,
you start the associated application. By default, the application starts automatically
when the server starts.
You can start and stop applications manually using
the following:
- Administrative console
- wsadmin startApplication and stopApplication commands
- Java programs that use ApplicationManager or AppManagement MBeans
To start or stop a mediation module,
you can use the administrative console to complete the following steps.
Note: Mediation modules are
types of Service Component Architecture (SCA) modules.
Steps for this task
- List the SCA modules. In the navigation pane, expand .
- Select the check box for the SCA module that
you want started or stopped.
- Click the Start or Stop button
Option |
Description |
Start |
Runs the application
and changes the state of the application to Started. The status is
changed to partially started if not all servers on which the application
is deployed are running. |
Stop |
Stops the processing
of the application and changes the state of the application to Stopped. |
To restart a running application, select the application you want to
restart, click Stop and then click Start.
Result
The status of the application changes and a message stating that the
application started or stopped displays at the top the page.
What to do next
You can change whether or not an application starts automatically
when the server on which it resides starts. For more information about starting
and stopping WebSphere applications, see
Starting and stopping applications.
