(v7) Verify the Composer Server Restart

Verify the Composer Server Restart

If you restarted the Composer server using the sudo service zoomdata restart command but still experience issues, you can verify that the Composer Server successfully restarted.

To verify, complete the following steps:

1. Obtain the Composer Process ID (PID) information by running:

   ps aux   
   grep zoomdata  

2. Then check the running time of the PID by running:

   ps -p [your_zoomdata_PID] -o etime=

3. Next, stop the Composer Server:

   sudo service zoomdata stop

4. Check whether the Composer Server is still running:

   ps aux   
   grep zoomdata  

5. Optional: Check whether the ports for Composer are still available:

   netstat -anp   
   grep 8080  

6. If you discover that the Composer Server is still running, you will need to force stop the Server by running:

   kill <your_zoomdata_PID>

   NOTE : If this command does not successfully terminate Composer, you can enter the following command line:

   kill -9 [your_zoomdata_PID]
     

   For additional information about the Linux kill command, please refer to the appropriate Linux documentation or the following Linux/Unix Command: ps/kill topic.

7. After successfully stopping the Composer Server, you can start it up again:

   sudo service zoomdata start

8. Check the running time of the Composer PID again:

   ps -p <your_zoomdata_PID> -o etime=

   The new Composer running time should reflect the time you restarted the server.
