The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

This section describes administrative tasks that are not done through the WAE UI.
Note To manage (start, stop, enable monitoring, or run services at system boot) WAE services using the WAE UI, see Managing and Configuring Services.
To determine which services are running, enter the following command:
service --status-all | grep -i wae
The installation process automatically starts the wae-web-server
, wae-ni
, and all System services ( wae-svcs-*
).
Note To change the behavior of the wae-web-server
service upon restarting it, you can edit the /opt/cariden/etc/sysconfig/wae-web-server.cfg
file. For information, see the Cisco WAE Server Installation Guide.
You can start, restart, and obtain the status of all Automation and WAE services using the following formats, respectively.
service <service_name> start
service <service_name> restart
service <service_name> status
You can start, stop, and restart Automation and WAE services from the Statistics > Processes page, as well as enable or disable the monitoring of them. The one exception is wae-web-server
, which can only be stopped or restarted from the CLI.
You cannot shut down a System service since these are required for the Statistics UI to properly function.
