Starting and Stopping the Gateway Instance

By default, the Gateway starts as user noaccess.

To Start the Gateway Instances

1. After installing the Gateway and creating the required profile, run the following command to start the Gateway:

   ./psadmin start-sra-instance –u amadmin – f <password file> –N <profile name>– t <gateway>

   default — is the default gateway profile that is created during installation. You can create your own profiles later, and restart the Gateway with the new profile. See Creating a Gateway Profile.

   Note –

   Replace the <profile name> with an appropriate profile name to start other instances of the Gateway.

   Restarting the server (the machine on which the Gateway instances are configured) restarts all instances of the Gateway.

   Ensure that no backed up profiles are present in the /etc/opt/SUNWportal directory.

2. Run the following command to check if the Gateway is running on the specified port:

   netstat -an | grep port-number

   The default Gateway port is 443.

To Stop the Gateway

1. Use the following command to stop the Gateway:

   ./psadmin stop-sra-instance –u amadmin – f <password file> –N <profile name>– t <gateway>

   Replace the <profile name> with an appropriate profile name to start other instances of the Gateway.
