Overview: Cisco RPMS System Start and Stop Flow

When the Cisco RPMS system is started, the components start in this order:

1. Oracle

2. Listener

3. Cisco RPMS

When Cisco RPMS is stopped, the components stop in reverse order, or:

1. Cisco RPMS

2. Listener

3. Oracle

Overview: Manual Start Procedures

You can manually start the procedures for Cisco RPMS. This is helpful in troubleshooting problems, or for re-starting processes that have stopped.

However, there are a few rules for running the start procedures.

Rules

•You must be logged in as the `oracle' user to start or stop the Oracle database and the TNS Listener. Ensure that the environmental variables are inherited.

•Oracle must be running before the TNS listener is started.

•Oracle and the TNS Listener must be running before Cisco RPMS is started.

•You must be logged in as root to start or stop Cisco RPMS.

•Ensure that there are no errant processes running before re-starting Cisco RPMS.

Manually Starting the Oracle Database

---

Note Read the Rules before starting the Oracle database.

---

You can manually start the Oracle database by using the following commands:

rlogin localhost -l oracle

<Oracle_home_dir>/bin/svrmgrl

connect internal;

startup

exit

Manually Starting the TNS Listener

---

Note Read the Rules before starting the Oracle database.

---

To manually start the TNS Listener, use the following command:

<Oracle_home_dir>/bin/lsnrctl start

Manually Starting Cisco RPMS

---

Note Read the Rules before starting the Oracle database.

---

You can manually start Cisco RPMS by using the following commands:

su

RPMS_home_dir/sbin/crpms start

Checking for Errant Processes

---

Note Read the Rules before starting the Oracle database.

---

You can check for errant processes by using the following command:

RPMS_home_dir/bin/showrpms

---

Note If any processes are not listed, manually stop and re-start Cisco RPMS.

---

Overview: Start Up Messages

When starting up the Oracle database, TNS Listener or Cisco RPMS, you encounter different messages. This section displays examples of those start up messages.

The Oracle Database Start Up Message

The Oracle database displays the following start up message:

Overview: Manual Stop Procedures

You can manually stop the procedures for Cisco RPMS. This is helpful in troubleshooting problems, or for stopping processes that have stopped.

However, there are a few rules for running the stop procedures.

Rules

•Oracle is NOT automatically started or stopped at the system boot or shut down. There is a risk of database corruption if the Oracle database is not shut down prior to system shut down.

•Start or stop scripts must be manually installed.

•You must be logged in as `oracle' to start or stop the Oracle database and the TNS Listener.

•You must be logged in as root to start or stop Cisco RPMS.
