Administer Orchestrators › Maintain the Orchestrator Host › Stop the Orchestrator

Stop the Orchestrator

Only administrators with administrator credentials on the server where the Orchestrator is installed can stop the Orchestrator.

Important! If an Orchestrator is not shut down gracefully, the following temporary folder can build up several gigabytes of files. If this happens, you can safely delete the tmp folder:

install_dir/server/c2o/tmp

Follow these steps:

1. Using Administrator credentials, log on to host where the target Orchestrator is installed.
2. If you logged in to a Windows host, you can stop the Orchestrator service from the Start menu, the Services window, or the command line. Complete one of the following actions:
   • Select Programs, CA, CA Process Automation 4.0, and Stop Orchestrator Service from the Start menu.
   • Select Administrative Tools and Services from the Control Panel. Select the following service and click Stop:

     CA Process Automation Orchestrator (C:/Program Files/CA/PAM/server/c2o)
     

   • Open a command prompt and run the following script:

     install_dir/server/c2o/bin/stopc2osvc.bat 
     

3. If you logged in to a UNIX or Linux host, complete the following steps:
   1. Change directories to ${PAM_HOME}/server/c2o/. For example, change directories to:

      /usr/local/CA/PAM/server/c2o
      

   2. Run the c2osvrd.sh script with the stop option. For example:

      ./c2osvrd.sh stop
