Starting and stopping product services
During the installation of BMC Release Process Management (BRPM), the BRPM server and the PostgreSQL database server (if installed) are registered as system services, provided that you installed BRPM with administrator or root privileges.
If you installed RPM without administrator or root privileges, you can use scripts to start or stop the RPM, PostgreSQL database, and Apache servers.
Starting or stopping registered product services
The following services are registered during the installation of RPM, provided that you installed the product with administrator or root privileges:
- BMC Release Process Management
- PostgreSQL
On Windows, you can start and stop the following services through the Services management console (services.msc).
On Linux or UNIX, use the following commands to start or stop the product services:
Service | Starting | Stopping |
|---|---|---|
BMC Release Process Management | /etc/init.d/bmcrpm-<versionNo> start For example: /etc/init.d/bmcrpm-5.0.03.004 start | /etc/init.d/bmcrpm-<versionNo> stop For example: /etc/init.d/bmcrpm-5.0.03.004 stop |
PostgreSQL | /etc/init.d/bmcrlmpostgresql-<versionNo> start For example: /etc/init.d/bmcrlmpostgresql-5.0.03.004 start | /etc/init.d/bmcrlmpostgresql-<versionNo> stop For example: /etc/init.d/bmcrlmpostgresql-5.0.03.004 stop |
Starting or stopping product services using scripts
If you installed RPM without administrator or root privileges, you can start and stop product services using special scripts, as described in the following table:
Task | Scripts |
