Products

Issue/Introduction

We would like to have the startup and shutdown scripts for the SCM Agents on the Redhat Linux server

Environment

Release : 14.x

Resolution

Here are examples of scripts that can be used for start up and shutdown of the SCM Agent on a Linux platform.  

cat /startagent.sh 
#!/bin/bash
#
# description: Starts the CA SCM agent process
#
# Assumes this will be executed by the "root" user account
# so that the agent will run in multi-user mode and that
# the "root" user does not have the environment variables
# for CA Harvest SCM already configured.

# Configure the necessary environment variables
source /home/cascm/set_ env.sh

# Start the SCM Harvest agent
$CA_SCM_HOME/bin/agntd

# Check to assure the process has started
ps -ef | grep scm

# End of script

cat stopagent.sh
#!/bin/sh
#
# description: Stops the CA SCM agent process
#
# Assumes this will be executed by the "root" user account
# so that the agent will run in multi-user mode and that
# the "root" user does not have the environment variables
# for CA Harvest SCM already configured.

# Configure the necessary environment variables
source /home/cascm/set_cascm_env.sh

# Stop the SCM Harvest agent
$CA_SCM_HOME/bin/agntd -shutdown

# Check to assure the process has stopped
ps -ef | grep agntd

# End of script

Additional Information
