Stop and start Control Room services on Linux

Review the instructions and service names to stop and restart Automation Anywhere Control Room services on Linux.

Prerequisites

Procedure

If you just finished installing A2019, use the following command to display the status of all Control Room services:

sudo systemctl status control*

Browse through the output. If any of the services are not actively running, you can manually start the service with the following command (see the next step for specific service names):

sudo systemctl start <servicename>

Note: If more than one service is not running, you can use the script in the next step to start all the services.

For other Linux installation issues, contact Automation Anywhere support: Open a support case (A-People login required).

Optional: Create a script from the following code, such as startallaae.sh, to start all the Control Room services.

This sample script lists the Control Room services that need to be restarted. You can restart the services in any sequence.

The sleep commands allow each service to complete startup before the next service is started.

Note: controlroomdiscoverybot.service is only installed by default starting in Automation 360 version 16.

echo Starting elastisearch
sudo systemctl start controlroomelasticsearch.service
sleep 30
echo Starting botcompiler
sudo systemctl start controlroombotcompiler.service
sleep 30
echo Starting control room caching
sudo systemctl start controlroomcaching.service
sleep 30
echo Starting backend service
sudo systemctl start controlroombackend.service
sleep 30
echo Starting reverse proxy
sudo systemctl start controlroomreverseproxy.service
sleep 30
echo Starting messaging
sudo systemctl start controlroommessaging.service
sleep 30
echo Starting iq bot
sudo systemctl start controlroomiqbot.service
sleep 30
echo Starting discovery bot
sudo systemctl start controlroomdiscoverybot.service
sleep 30
echo Starting aari
sudo systemctl start controlroomaari.service
sleep 30
echo Starting storage
sudo systemctl start controlroomstorage.service
sleep 30
echo Starting ml services
sudo systemctl start controlroomdiscoverybotml.service
sleep 30

Assign execute permission to the script and run it:

sudo
                        ./startallaae.sh

To stop a single service, use the following command:

sudo systemctl
                        stop <servicename>

Optional: To stop all services for maintenance or other requirements, create a script, such as stopallaae.sh, to stop the Control Room services.

sudo systemctl stop controlroommessaging.service
sudo systemctl stop controlroomreverseproxy.service
sudo systemctl stop controlroombackend.service
sudo systemctl stop controlroomcaching.service
sudo systemctl stop controlroombotcompiler.service
sudo systemctl stop controlroomelasticsearch.service
sudo systemctl stop controlroomiqbot.service
sudo systemctl stop controlroomdiscoverybot.service

sudo systemctl stop controlroomaari.service
sudo systemctl stop controlroomstorage.service
sudo systemctl stop controlroomdiscoverybotml.service

Assign execute permissions to the script and run it:

sudo
                        ./stopallaae.sh
