path=.:./LinAv7 -cp .:./cbs.jar cbs /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/AhsayOBM/obm

  • To manually stop the scheduler service:

    1. First, get the system volume path, use the getcfg SHARE_DEF defVo1MP -f /etc/config/def_share.info script.
    2. Then, use the touch /%system volume path%/ .qpkg/AhsayOBM/obm/ipc/Scheduler/stop script.
    3. Last, use the ps command to check if the scheduler is still running.

    For example: 

    [~] # getcfg SHARE_DEF defVolMP -f /etc/config/def_share.info
/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA
[~] # touch /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/AhsayOBM/obm/ipc/Scheduler/stop
[~] # ps -ef|grep java
5001 admin 456 S grep java

  • To manually start the scheduler service, use the /%system volume path%/ .qpkg/AhsayOBM/obm/bin/Scheduler.sh script and use the ps command again to check.

    In our example, the scheduler service is running: 

    [~] # /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/AhsayOBM/obm/bin/Scheduler.sh
[~] # ps -ef|grep java
