You can use the Management Console to start, stop and restart BeanConnect proxies and proxy components on both local and remote hosts.
Starting and stopping a BeanConnect proxy
Select the command Start Proxy or Stop Proxy from the BeanConnect proxy's context menu to start or stop the proxy.
In the case of proxies for CICS partners, a proxy consists of multiple components. The Management Console allows you to start/stop individual proxy components or all the components of a proxy. A special dialog box is displayed in which you can select the components that are to be started/stopped. You can select the following components:
proxy container
openUTM-LU62 Gateway (for CICS partners)
SNAP-IX or IBM Communications Server (for CICS partners)
For CICS partners:
You must not stop the openUTM-LU62 Gateway and SNAP-IX or the IBM Communications Server as long as other applications that use these components are running (such as proxy containers, for example).
The Management Console only tries to start the proxy component if the proxy component in question is not already running.
Restarting the BeanConnect proxy
Select the command Save/Restart - Restart Proxy from the BeanConnect proxy's context menu.
In the case of proxies for CICS partners, when you perform a restart then, in the same way as a normal start/shutdown, a dialog box is displayed in which you can select the components that are to be restarted.
When restarting a proxy container the individual processes are stopped one after the other and are then restarted. The proxy container remains available during the restart.
