Manage Integration Services

Operations Connector enables you to manage its event and topology integration services.

Starting and Stopping the Services

While you do not need to manually start or stop the integration services of Operations Connector in normal circumstances, there may be cases when this action is necessary. To start or stop the integration services, perform these steps:

  1. Open a Command Prompt window (command shell).

  2. If Operations Connector is hosted on a Linux system, change the current directory to /opt/OV/bin

  3. To start or stop all integration services, run the appropriate command:

    ovc -start SIM

    ovc -stop SIM

  4. To start or stop the event or topology integration service, run the appropriate command:

    ovc -start <ServiceName>

    ovc -stop <ServiceName>

    In these instances, <ServiceName> is sime or simt.

Restarting the Services

After reconfiguring Operations Connector, you must restart its integration services. You can restart either all integration services or a specific service if only a specific configuration file has changed. Perform these steps:

  1. Open a Command Prompt window (command shell).

  2. If Operations Connector is hosted on a Linux system, change the current directory to /opt/OV/bin

  3. To restart all integration services, run the following command:

    ovc -restart SIM

  4. To restart the event or topology integration services individually, run the following commands:

    ovc -restart sime

    ovc -restart simt

Checking the Services Status

Using the Operations Connector command-line interface, you can also check whether the integration services are running. Perform these steps:

  1. Open a Command Prompt window (command shell).

  2. If Operations Connector is hosted on a Linux system, change the current directory to /opt/OV/bin

  3. To check the status of all integration services, run the following command:

    ovc -status SIM

  4. To check the individual status of the event or topology integration services, run the following commands:

    ovc -status sime

    ovc -status simt
