Shutting Down the Oracle BI Server Using the Administration Tool

The following procedure explains how to shut down the server using the Administration Tool. You need to open the repository in online mode using a nonclustered DSN.

NOTE:  To shut down the server, the DSN has to log in as a user that has Administrator authority.

To shut down the server using the Administration Tool

1. Start the Administration Tool by selecting Start > Programs > Oracle BI > Oracle BI Administration Tool.
2. Open a repository that is loaded on the server in online mode.
3. Select File > Shut Down Server.
4. When a dialog box appears asking you to confirm the shutdown, click Yes.

   This shuts the server down and ends the Administration Tool online session. When connected using a clustered DSN, use the Cluster Manager to take individual Oracle BI Server instances offline. For more information, refer to Using the Cluster Manager.
