Starting an AppNode
Use the
start command to start an AppNode manually.
When an AppSpace is started, all AppNodes associated with the AppSpace automatically start.
Note: By default, the value for the
bw.engine.shutdownOnFailure property is
true in the AppSpace
config.ini file. This ensures that the AppNode does not start when there are any issues when starting the bwengine. You can also configure the property at the AppNode, or the AppSpace level.
BWAdmin Command Line
Run the following command at the command line to start the
MyAppNode AppNode:
BW_HOME\bin>bwadmin start -d MyDomain -a MyAppSpace appnode MyAppNode
Tip: If the AppNode is not gracefully shut down, it could corrupt the
/config folder.
Configure the bw.appnode.clean.config.folder.on.startup property in the AppNode, or the AppSpace config.ini file.
To create a new /config folder every time the AppNode starts, set the bw.appnode.clean.config.folder.on.startup property to true. Setting the property to false, or leaving it undefined results in the /config folder not being deleted when the AppNode starts.
