Starting the Workflow Monitor Agent

You use the Server Manager command line to start the Workflow Monitor Agent.

Caution: If a Workflow Process Manager server task fails, and if more server tasks start that also fail, then Workflow Monitor Agent exits with error after only one violation. This situation can result in Workflow Monitor Agent starting more server tasks that are not required when the Workflow Process Manager server task fails. To avoid this situation, it is recommended that you stop, and then restart Workflow Process Manager.

For more information, see Setting the Parameters of the Workflow Monitor Agent. For more information about using the Siebel Server Manager Command Line Interface, see Siebel System Administration Guide.

To start the Workflow Monitor Agent

  1. Start the Server Manager. Enter the following command in the Server Manager command line:

    srvrmgr /g gateway_server_address /s Siebel_Server_name /e enterprise_server_name 
    /u server_administrator_user_name /p server_administrator_password
  2. Start a new Workflow Monitor Agent server task in background mode. Enter the following command:

    start task for component WorkMon with SleepTime=time,GroupName=group_name
  3. (Optional) Start a new Workflow Monitor Agent server task to run in batch mode to process a Batch policy. Enter the following command:

    start task for component WorkMon with GroupName=group_name, BatchMode=Y

    You must create a separate server component instance for each Workflow Monitor Agent server task.
