You might need to start a service that has been stopped, or you might need to stop and restart a service.
Before you begin
You must have the Passwords.txt file.
Steps
- From the service laptop, log in to the grid node:
- Enter the following command: ssh admin@grid_node_IP
- Enter the password listed in the Passwords.txt file.
- Enter the following command to switch to root: su -
- Enter the password listed in the Passwords.txt file.
When you are logged in as root, the prompt changes from $ to #.
- Decide which command to issue, based on whether the service is currently running or stopped.
- If the service is currently stopped, use the start command to start the service manually: service servicename start
For example:
service ldr start
- If the service is currently running, use the restart command to stop the service and then restart it: service servicename restart
For example:
service ldr restart
Note: Using the restart command is the same as using the stop command followed by the start command. You can issue restart even if the service is currently stopped.
- Log out of the command shell: exit
