Rebooting NetAct virtual machines

To reboot only the NetAct virtual machines, for example, when reboot is planned on the NetAct system, follow the
instructions in this section.

Note:

You can reboot only the virtual machines managed by the smanager.pl command.

Rebooting NetAct virtual machines causes NetAct to be unavailable for some time.

1. Log in to a virtual machine (VM) hosting the cpfvmanager service, and switch to the root user.

To locate the right VM, see Locating the right virtual machine for a service.

2. Verify whether all NetAct virtual machines are available and are reporting the status of their services by entering:

[root]# smanager.pl status

Note:
The smanager.pl command cannot reboot a virtual machine that is not accessible.

3. Stop the vManager service so that it does not handle VM reset operations by entering:

[root]# /opt/cpf/install/bin/cpfvmanager_configure.sh --disable_vcenter --disable_alarms

--stop

4. Log in to the virtual machine in which the nfs service is running as a new connection and switch to root user.

5. Reboot NetAct virtual machines by entering:

[root]# smanager.pl reboot NetAct

Note:

For non-root login, when executing the smanager.pl reboot NetAct command after switching to the root
user, a confirmation message appears. Type yes to continue with the reboot.

After successful execution of the command, the NFS VM reboots, and the connection to the NFS VM is
terminated. The NFS VM reboot may take some time.

Wait till all the VMs are successfully up.

6. Once the connection to vManager VM is available again, log in to the virtual machine hosting the cpfvmanager
service, and switch to root user.

Note:
Wait until all services have been restarted.

7. Check if all the services (except cpfvmanager service) are up and running by entering:

[root]# smanager.pl status

Example output:

jetty-vm7 started standAlone

cpfnx2s-vm7 started standAlone
OMAgentAF-vm7 started standAlone
ssh-vm7 started (u) standAlone
ntp-vm7 started (u) standAlone

If there is a (u) beside a service, the service cannot be stopped.

8. Start the vManager service by entering:

[root]# /opt/cpf/install/bin/cpfvmanager_configure.sh --enable_vcenter --enable_alarms

--start
