Starting and terminating generic servers

This topic describes how to start and terminate generic servers.

Why and when to perform this task

If you created a generic server on a Base WebSphere Application Server, you cannot start, terminate, or monitor this server with the Base Application Server administrative console. You must use the wsadmin tool to manage Base generic servers.

Starting generic servers

There are two ways to start a generic server in a Network Deployment environment:
  • Use the administrative console:
    1. From the administrative console navigation tree, select Servers > Application Servers.
    2. Select the check box beside the name of the generic server, and then click Start.
    3. View the Status value and any messages or logs to see whether the generic server starts.
  • Use the MBean NodeAgent launchProcess operation of the wsadmin tool.

Terminating generic servers

There are two ways to terminate a generic server in a Network Deployment environment:
  • Use the administrative console:
    1. From the administrative console navigation tree, select Servers > Application Servers.
    2. Select the check box beside the name of the generic server, and then click Terminate.
    3. View the Status value and any messages or logs to see whether the generic server terminates.
    Note: The Stop and Stop Immediate buttons on the administrative console do not work for generic servers.
  • Use the MBean terminate launchProcess operation of the wsadmin tool.
