Situation
How do I put a server or group of servers in Maintenance Mode?
Resolution
The following steps must be performed to put a server in Maintenance Mode:
- Launch AppManager Operator Console.
- In TreeView, right-click the computer you wish to put in maintenance mode.
- Select Maintenance Mode.
Currently, AppManager does not support putting server groups in Maintenance Mode. However, you can use the AMADMIN_SchedMaint Knowledge Script, found in the AMADMIN tab, to do this with the following steps:
- Launch AppManager Operator Console.
- From the AMADMIN tab, drag and drop the SchedMaint knowledge script to the Server Group you wish to put in Maintenance Mode.
- Select settings to use for that group of servers.
- Select OK.
The maintenance job will then start and stop at the scheduled times you have set.
