Starting up applications and their processes in an orderly manner. Monitoring the health of managed processes and restarting processes as defined in the processes.dat file. Shutting down applications and their processes in an orderly manner. The individual processes are described in the following table. Once the Process Manager and the rest of the processes are running, the operator can then stop and start processes individually, or by process group, using the MML interface commands.
Applications consist of one or more operating system processes that are managed as a group.
Each application may be managed independently of the others. The operator cannot start the Process Manager using MML interface commands. The Process Manager goes through its initialization sequence and starts any other processes that were stopped at the time of initialization. The Process Manager does not restart any process or process group that is already running. Note Use the reverse order to bring down the platform via MML interface commands.
