drain Integrator before stopping Integrator server to avoid logger index to be regenerated

Problem

-- when a user stops Integrator server while messages are being processed (messages in Integrator queues), loggers indexes are regenerated at restart :

WARNING 20141125 16.07.46.58 axwaydemo logger : indexes must be regenerated

-- in case of large number of entries in the loggers, it may take a long time (30 mins or even more), which is a serious problem in production (long downtime)

Resolution

* if possible, drain Integrator before stopping the server :

    -> disable the Application pickups
    -> "Disable all pickups for receiving partner messages" at the Community level
    -> wait until there are no more messages in Integrator queues (Queue Monitor)
    -> stop Integrator Server

* it may happen that you can't drain the system before stopping the server. To limit the time spent to reindex the logger, follow the KB https://support.axway.com/kb/68801/language/en : -R and -D options optimize the logger size, and speed-up the reindexation
