Starting, Stopping, and Restarting AtScale Database Instances
After logging into the system where an AtScale instance is installed, you can run the following commands to start, stop, and restart the local instance of the AtScale database.
Starting an AtScale database instance
To start the database instance, run this command:
/opt/atscale/bin/atscale_service_control start database
The message Database system is ready to accept connections is logged
in the latest log file under /opt/atscale/log/database/ after the
instance starts.
Important: You do not have to stop any AtScale services before
starting the database instance. However, those services cannot fully
function unless the AtScale database instance is up and running. After
you start the database instance, the services will detect that the
instance is running and recover. However, you should check the status of
the services to find out whether any need to be restarted. To do so, run
this command: /opt/atscale/bin/atscale_service_control status. To
restart a service, run this command:
/opt/atscale/bin/atscale_service_control restart service_name
Stopping an AtScale database instance
Before running the command to stop the database instance, stop the AtScale apps and egress services by running these commands:
/opt/atscale/bin/atscale_stop_apps
/opt/atscale/bin/atscale_service_control stop egress
To stop the database instance, run this command:
/opt/atscale/bin/atscale_service_control stop database
The message Database system is shut down is logged in the latest log
file under /opt/atscale/log/database/ after the instance stops.
Restarting an AtScale database instance
/opt/atscale/bin/atscale_service_control restart database
