Shutting Down a Siebel Server

This topic describes how to shut down a Siebel Server.

CAUTION:  If you shut down the Siebel Server that is hosting your current Siebel Web Client session, then you lose connection to the Siebel Server and cannot restart the Siebel Server by using the Siebel Web Client. In such a case, you must restart the Siebel Server by using the Siebel Developer Web Client or the Server Manager command-line interface. You can shut down and restart Siebel Servers that do not host your Siebel Web Client session without losing your connection.

This topic is part of Administering Siebel Servers.

To shut down a Siebel Server

1. Navigate to Administration - Server Management screen, then the Enterprises view.
2. In the Servers list, select the Siebel Server of interest.
3. Click Shutdown.

   The State field changes to Shutting Down.

NOTE:  Shutting down the Siebel Server does not automatically shut down the Siebel Server system service. In some cases, you must shut down not only the Siebel Server, but also the Siebel Server system service.
