Environment

All supported Devtest versions

Cause

   When we are executing the stop script on MQ service, your MQ service is taking time to close the back-end connections and it is exceeding the response time of VSEManager (60000ms) .

    In the backend, your stop request is processed without any issues. So, you can ignore this message in VSEManager.

 

Resolution

 

   If you want to run stop MQ service requests using VSEManager, you can run it in back-end mode by using am-percent (&) command at end and trigger the script.

Ex:  <Devtest_HOME>/10.7/bin/VSEManager --registry tcp://<HOST_NAME>:2010/Registry --vse VSE --username=username --password=password --stop <Service_name> &
