vme2 Restart Command on MSA

The PostgreSQL service is the MSA DB service and the Tomcat8 service is a web server service.

When the command service vme2 restart is issued, the PostgreSQL and Tomcat8 services used by JetStream DR software will be stopped and then restarted.

While the PostgreSQL and Tomcat8 services are stopped it is not possible to conduct any operations from the vCenter JetStream DR UI plugin.

Example: Backend Tasks from the Console

Verifying the Status of vme2

To verify the current status of vme2 services PostgreSQL and Tomcat8, execute the command:
services vme2 status

Restarting Tomcat Services (only)
From JetStream DR software version 4.3 and beyond it is possible to manually restart the Tomcat service only. Use the following command to restart Tomcat: #service msa-tomcat restart.
