Parameters

Parameter

Description

-m

Optional: Stops only the Multi-Domain Server and not the Domain Management Servers.

-s

Optional: Stops all the Domain Management Servers sequentially.

The command waits for each Domain Management Server to stop, before it stops the next one.

Controlling the number of Domain Management Servers to stop sequentially

By default, the system attempts to stop up to 10 Domain Management Servers at the same time.

You can decrease the amount of time it takes to stop the Multi-Domain Server when there are many Domain Management Servers.

To do this, set the value of the environment variable NUM_EXEC_SIMUL to the number of Domain Management Servers that stop at the same time.

This procedure configures the specified value for the environment variable NUM_EXEC_SIMUL in the current shell (does not survive reboot):

Step

Instructions

1

Connect to the command line on the Multi-Domain Server.

2

Log in to the Expert mode.

3

Set the value of the environment variable NUM_EXEC_SIMUL:

[Expert@MDS:0]# export NUM_EXEC_SIMUL=<Number of Domain Management Servers>

Example:

4

Make sure the new value of the environment variable NUM_EXEC_SIMUL is set:

[Expert@MDS:0]# echo $NUM_EXEC_SIMUL

Output must show the configured value.

This procedure removes the configured value for the environment variable NUM_EXEC_SIMUL in the current shell (does not survive reboot):
