Shutdown the Replication Engine

You might need to shutdown the Oracle MaxRep Replication Engine for maintenance.

Shutdown the Replication Engine, which is running the replication services, using the Oracle MaxRep Support User Interface. Run the Support UI from a separate web page than the Oracle MaxRep for SAN GUI.

Caution

Shutting down the Replication Engine stops all data replication services. In some circumstances, a resynchronization might be required when the services are restarted. To avoid the resynchronization, use the stop command when the Replication Engine is not backing up data.

Note: If you are shutting down the control service Replication Engine, the web services that run the Oracle MaxRep for SAN GUI and the Support UI also shut down. These interfaces are not accessible until the control service Replication Engine restart has completed.

Log in to the Support User Interface page on the control service Replication Engine.
Result:
The Dashboard page displays.
Click the Management Tasks > Shutdown/Restart Services link.
From the Host list, select the Replication Engine that is running the Oracle MaxRep replication services.
Select Shutdown.
To shutdown the replication services, click Save Task.

If you shut down the control service Replication Engine, the web services that run the Oracle MaxRep for SAN GUI and the Support UI also shut down. These interfaces are not accessible until the control service Replication Engine restart has completed. Restart the Replication Engine manually, or by using the ILOM facility to power‑on the Replication Engine.
