Starting and Stopping Greenplum Command Center

Greenplum Command Center includes the command center console and the command center agents.

Starting and Stopping Command Center Agents

Whenever the Greenplum Database server configuration parameter gp_enable_gpperfmon is enabled in the master postgresql.conf file, the Command Center agents will run and collect data. These agents are automatically stopped and started together with the Greenplum Database instance.

To disable the Command Center data collection agents, you must disable the gp_enable_gpperfmon parameter, and restart the Greenplum Database instance.

Starting and Stopping Command Center Console

Use the following gpcmdr commands to start, stop and restart Greenplum Command Center Console instances:

$ gpcmdr --start ["instance name"]

$ gpcmdr --stop ["instance name"]

$ gpcmdr --restart ["instance name"]

If you do not specify an instance name, all instances are started, stopped, or restarted at once. You can check the status of instances using:

$ gpcmdr --status ["instance name"]
