To stop a Linux/UNIX Scheduler from within RED, follow the steps below:
- Edit the crontab and comment out the ws_sched_check_nnn.sh entry. This will stop the scheduler restarting within the next 20 minutes.
Note
There may be several different versions of the scheduler files for a given database and platform (UNIX or Linux). For example, there may be different folders in ...\WhereScape\Oracle\Linux\: Version_010, Version_411 and Version_560. The highest version number script less than or equal to the version of RED in use should always be used.
- Start RED and click the Scheduler tab.
- Click the Scheduler menu from the toolbar and then select Scheduler Status.
- Right-click the displayed UNIX/Linux scheduler entry and choose Shutdown Scheduler.
Sometime within the next poll interval of the scheduler, the scheduler will gracefully stop.
