If you want to shut down a service instance because it is no
longer needed, or because you want to run it on a different node, you can shut
the service down without disturbing the work of end users. You can also shut it
down immediately.
Procedure
-
Log in to the
Spotfire Server
web administration pages and click
Nodes & Services.
-
On the
Network page, under
Node managers, expand the node of interest and
click the service instance that you want to shut down.
-
In the right pane, click
Shut down and then do one of the following:
- If you want the
instance to shut down immediately, whether or not it is being used, click
Immediately.
Note: End users
who are on this service instance will lose any unsaved work.
- If you want the
instance to continue running for a while, click
Schedule and then enter the number of
hours and minutes you want
Spotfire Server
to wait before shutting it down.
Note: Before the
shutdown, any users on that service instance are notified that the instance
will be shutting down; this gives them time to save their work. The instance is
then shut down when the user or users close the analysis, or at the scheduled
time, whichever is earlier. If no one is using the instance, the instance is
shut down immediately.
- If you want to
schedule shutting down all services, you can do so using a script. See
Shutting down node services gracefully through script
for more information.
