Stopping and starting the IBM InfoSphere Information Server server engine

Restart the InfoSphere® Information Server engine after you complete certain tasks such as editing the dsenv file or modifying the uvconfig file.

• AIX® Solaris Linux®
  1. Log in to the engine tier computer as the IBM® InfoSphere DataStage® administrator (typically dsadm).
  2. Change to the engine directory and set the environment.

     cd $DSHOME
     . ./dsenv
     

     $DSHOME is the name of the engine directory. The default directory is /opt/IBM/InformationServer/Server/DSEngine.
  3. Stop the engine.

     ./bin/uv -admin -stop
     

     The command displays a message when the engine stops.

     ./bin/uv -admin -start
