Disable the Automatic Recovery of the Data Aggregator Process

Disable the automatic recovery of the Data Aggregator process before you upgrade Data Aggregator. An upgrade can then be performed without having the cron job disrupt the system when it is expected to be down.

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the computer where the Data Aggregator is installed as the root user.
  2. Open a console and type the following command:
    crontab -e
    

    A vi session opens.

  3. Comment out the following line:
    * * * * * /etc/init.d/dadaemon start > /dev/null
    

    For example:

    # * * * * * /etc/init.d/dadaemon start > /dev/null
    

    The automatic recovery of the Data Aggregator process is disabled.
