Stopping Axway Gateway

Prerequisites

Stop Gateway Navigator.

Stopping Gateway

Windows (non-service mode)

Do one of the following:

Windows service mode

During installation you can choose to run Gateway as a Windows service. This causes the server to start and stop with the machine on which it is installed.

For details of how to select this option, refer to the Axway 5 Suite Installation and Prerequisites Guide.

If you need to stop the Gateway server with Windows running:

  1. From the Windows Start menu, select Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.
  2. Windows displays the Services window.
  3. Scroll down the Services list and right-click the Gateway service.
  4. From the context menu, select Stop.

UNIX

  1. Navigate to the directory:
  2. <Gateway install directory>/run_time/etc/profile
  3. Execute the script: profile.
  4. Execute the command: $ gatestart

Checking Gateway processes on UNIX

Gateway is composed of a group of related executable programs. The programs activated at startup depend on the options chosen in the configuration menu.

After entering the command gatestart you can check that Gateway processes have correctly started or stopped.

To view the list of programs that are activated, enter the command:

$ ps –e | grep -E " p_| q_| h_| notif| ipelapi"

When Gateway is started, the ps (or Process List) command must show a supervisor process (p_sup) and a system process (p_sys).

Other Gateway processes are launched depending on the networks, protocol resources used and product options.
