OBIEE11g - Stopping and Starting Services using Fusion Middleware Control

In OBIEE 10g all five services could be stopped and started from the windows services management console.



However, things have changed with OBIEE 11g because of the change in the architecture, specifically related to scalability. All the services are maintained through Oracle Process Manager and Notification (OPMN) server. Stopping/Starting this service will stop/start all BI services for that instance.



Most of the administration activities are performed using Fusion Middleware (FMW)
Control in OBIEE 11g. You can stop and start services from FMW Control too.

Logon to FMW Control using URL http://hostname:7001/em



Select coreapplication under Business Intelligence in the left tree in FMW Control. The "Overview" tab on the right will show number of services running (Generally 5, but may be different based on your scalability settings). You can Stop, Start or Restart all services using buttons provided.



To stop and start individual services, navigate to "Availability" tab under "Capacity Management" tab. You can stop/start all or selective services here.
