Launching Peer Server
The FPS can be launched from the Windows Start menu or by directly executing a script file.
When the peer server is launched, the enterprise server must be running on the configured machine for successful peer server startup. Please refer to section Configuring Enterprise and Peer Servers in different Networks for instructions on how to configure the Enterprise Server URL for a Peer Server. If the Enterprise Server is not reachable by the Peer Server or if it is not running, the Peer Server keeps waiting until it can reach the Enterprise Server on a specific connection URL. The Enterprise Server starts successfully when the Peer Server is able to establish a connection with the Enterprise Server.
From Start Menu in Windows
Click Start > Programs > Fiorano > Fiorano Platform > Fiorano Servers > Fiorano ESB Peer
Using Script Files
Default Profile
To start the FPS server with the default profile (profile1), browse to the location <fiorano_installation_dir>\esb\server\bin and execute the following script:
Specific Profile
To start the FES server with a specific profile other than the default profile, browse to the location: <fiorano_installation_dir>\esb\server\bin and execute the following script with the profile option as shown below:
Example: <profileName>=haprofile1/primary or <profileName>=haprofile1/secondary (This is to start servers in HA mode)
Installing as Service
The batch/shell scripts required to run the Fiorano Servers as services are present at FIORANO_HOME/esb/server/bin/service.
To install FPS as a Windows NT service, run the command:
To remove FPS as a Windows NT service, run the command:
Shutting Down the Peer Server
The FPS can be stopped from the Fiorano eStudio or by directly executing a script file. Shutting down the Peer Server automatically invokes a shutdown hook in the peer server’s JVM which cleans up any resources and connections used by the server’s JVM.
Using Fiorano eStudio
To shut down the peer server, perform the following actions:
- Open Server Explorer panel by navigating through Window > Show View > Other > Fiorano > Server Explorer.
- Expand Peer Repository, right-click fps node and click Shutdown.
Figure 1: Shutting down FPS Server
Using Script Files
The Peer Server can be shutdown using the shutdown-server script present in <fiorano_installation_dir>/esb/server/bin folder.
This script can be used to:
- Shut down a standalone peer server.
- Shut down both the primary and secondary HA servers simultaneously.
Options that can be specified within the script are:
- -user: Name of the User trying to shutdown Fiorano server.
- -passwd: Password of the User trying to shutdown Fiorano server.
- -restart or –r: Restarts the Fiorano Server.
- -ha: Used to shutdown both active and passive servers running in HA.
- -mode: mode of the server, that is, fes or fps. Defaults to value fps.
- -url: URL of the active Fiorano Enterprise Server to which the Peer Server has connected.
- -fpsname: Fiorano ESB Peer name.
- -? or –help: Prints help message.
Examples:
To shut down a standalone Peer Server
To shut down both active/passive Peer Servers in HA
The above examples of shutting down the Peer Server(s) involves connecting to an Active Enterprise Server, whose url is specified by the -url parameter.
The following options can also be specified if a User wants to shutdown the Peer Server using a RMI connection. This involves connecting directly to the Peer Server to initiate the shutdown.
- -connectorType: Connection type to server. Pass RMI for shutting down servers using RMI connection.
- -address: IP Address of server
- -rmiPort: RMI port of server
Examples:
To shut down the Standalone Server
To shut down both active/passive servers in HA
Clearing Peer Server Database
To clear the Peer Server database of the default profile (that is profile1), run the clearDBServer.bat executable file present in the <fiorano_installation_dir>\esb\server\bin folder or browse to this location and execute the following script:
To clear the Peer Server database of a specific profile (other than the default profile), double-click the clearDBServer.bat file present in the <fiorano_installation_dir>\esb\server\bin folder or browse to this location and execute the following script with the profile option as shown below:
The following operations are available when this script is executed from which you may choose the option of your preference:
Operation | Description |
---|---|
1. File BasedDatastore | Clears the local cache of the Peer server. |
2. Security Datastore | Clears the Peer server's ACLs (Access Control Lists) and they will be recreated next time the peer starts. |
3. Admin Datastore | Clears the admin objects, that is, the JMS connection factories queues and topic destinations. |
4. Cached Component Store | Clears all the cached components stored in the Peer Server‘s runtime storage. |
5. All | Clears all five of the above. |
Select the preferred number (from 1 to 5) corresponding to the datastore that needs to be cleared.
Figure 2: Options to clear datastore
This script can be executed in Quiet Mode as follows (sample):
- -mode - to clear fps or fes runtimedata
- -dbPath - runtime data directory for the profile
- -profile - profile name for which runtimedata is to be cleared
- -q - to run the script in quiet mode.
