Start & Stop the Software Deployment Manager

As standard, the Software Deployment Manager (SDM) is integrated into the Java Startup and Control Framework  of the J2EE Engine, which means that it is started and stopped automatically with the J2EE Engine. In some situations you might need to start and stop the SDM independently of the J2EE Engine. For example, for  security reasons, you may want to run the SDM during the current deployment only. The way you start and stop the SDM depends on your operating system.

Starting and Stopping the SDM (UNIX)

To stop or start the SDM Server independently of the J2EE Engine, proceed as follows:

1. Navigate to the usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE_NAME>/SDM/program directory of your J2EE Engine installation.

• To stop the SDM Server, execute the command:

 StopServer.sh 

• To start the SDM Server, execute the command:

 StartServer.sh 

Starting and Stopping the SDM (Windows)

On  Windows OS, you administer the J2EE Engine and its processes with the SAP Management Console or the command line.

1. Start the SAP Management Console by choosing Start > Programs > SAP Management Console. Select the Tree tab.
2. From the tree, choose SAP Systems > [SID] > [SAP_Web_AS_Java_Instance] > Process Table.

Additional note:
The SAP Web AS Java instance and the Central Services instance are presented with different nodes in the SAP Management Console.

4. Select the SDM process
• To start it, choose Enable Process in the context menu.
• To stop it, choose Disable Process in the context menu.

Operating the SDM from the Command Line
1. Navigate to the usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE_NAME>/SDM/program directory of your J2EE Engine installation.
