Stops or restarts the SAS embedded process (SAS EP) without
recycling the DB2® instance.
This is useful when maintenance operations, such as upgrading the
SAS EP library or correcting an erroneous library path, are to be
performed.
Command syntax
>>-db2ida-- -provider--provider-name--+- -start-----+----------><
+- -stop------+
'- -stopforce-'
Command parameters
- -provider provider-name
- Specifies an analytics provider. This parameter is case insensitive.
Currently, the only supported value is SAS.
- -start
- Starts the SAS EP if it is not currently running. DB2 respawn logic applies if the process terminates
abnormally.
- -stop
- Stops the SAS EP if it is safe to do so. If any executing queries
are dependent on the SAS EP, the command fails. The database manager
does not attempt to respawn the SAS EP after it has successfully stopped.
- -stopforce
- Forces the SAS EP to shut down, even if there are dependent queries
running on the system. The database manager does not attempt to respawn
the SAS EP after it has successfully stopped.
