Automation Engine Processes can be shut down differently. There are three different modes that can be used.
Service Manager and Service Manager Dialog options:
"C" = Close. The service ends normally. Using Service Manager Dialog it would be 'End Service - Immediately single process'
In Service Manager log files, the following message will be displayed:
U00022010 Terminate process 'UC4 WP5/UC4 WP-Server [UC4PRD#WP002] - 9 Connections' (ID '15555') with mode 'C'.
"S" = System Shutdown. The service stops immediately independent of ongoing tasks. The rest of the services follow the shutdown.
In Service Manager Dialog it would be 'End Service - Shutdown (UC4 system)'.
In Service Manager log files, the following message will be displayed:
U00022010 Terminate process 'UC4 WP5/UC4 WP-Server [UC4PRD#WP002] - 9 Connections' (ID '15555') with mode 'S'.
"A" = Abnormally. The service is immediately stopped by the ServiceManager through a system call (kill). Use this command only when attempts by the service to stop itself were not successful.
In Service Manager Dialog it would be 'End Service - Abnormally'.
