Question
How to restart PACI-im service?
Answer
For OA 7.0:
# service PACI-im restart
For OA 5.5 and 6.0:
service PACI-im stop
service terracotta stop
service activemq-server stop
service activemq-server start
service terracotta start
service PACI-im start
OACI service restart, by default, waits for all active VE operations to be completed. This makes it possible to have a very long restart, in case some operation is stuck or takes too much time to complete. On the other hand, API interface is already shutdown, so CP menus become unavailable. In case it is actually needed to restart the service in a tight time period, it can be advised to use the following way:
# service PACI-im upgrade-stop
# service PACI-im start
upgrade-stop command waits for the operations within 5 minutes and terminates them forcibly afterwards. This option is available in all OA versions.
Fast restart in order to reload settings from configuration files. This option first appeared in OA 5.5.6.
# service PACI-im fast-restart
Note: During execution of fast-restart background operations like VEs backup creation remain active. But OACI screens in Provider/Customers Control Panels will be not available during the fast-restart.
