You can choose to start up the MySQL Enterprise Service Manager on installation. The installed services are called:
MySQL Enterprise Tomcat
MySQL Enterprise MySQL
You can stop or start the services from the Microsoft Management
Console Services window. Look for the MySQL Enterprise
Tomcat
and the MySQL Enterprise MySQL
entries.
On Windows Vista, starting these services requires
administrative privileges — you must be logged in as an
administrator. To start or stop a service right click it and
choose the Run as Administrator menu option.
The same restriction applies to using the menu options discussed
in the following and to starting the services from the command
line. To open an administrator cmd
window
right click the cmd
icon and choose the
Run as Administrator menu option.
To start or stop a service, right click it and choose from the options in the pop-up menu.
There is also a menu entry for starting and stopping the services.
Navigate to the Program
,
MySQL
, MySQL Enterprise Monitor
,
Services
entry to stop or start the services.
You can also stop or start a service from the command line. To start the Tomcat service type:
shell> sc start MySQLEnterpriseTomcat
or:
shell> net start MySQLEnterpriseTomcat
To stop this service type:
shell> sc stop MySQLEnterpriseTomcat
or:
shell> net stop MySQLEnterpriseTomcat
In similar fashion, you may stop or start the MySQL server from
the command line. The service name is
MySQLEnterpriseMySQL
.
You may also start, stop, and restart a specific service or both
services using the mysqlmonitorctl.bat
file.
To execute this file, go to the command line and navigate to the
C:\Program Files\MySQL\Enterprise\Monitor
directory. Typing mysqlmonitorctl.bat help
produces the following output:
usage: mysqlmonitorctl.bat help mysqlmonitorctl.bat (start|stop|restart|install|uninstall) mysqlmonitorctl.bat (start|stop|restart) tomcat mysqlmonitorctl.bat (start|stop|restart) mysql help - this screen start - start the service(s) stop - stop the service(s) restart - restart or start the service(s) install - install the service(s) uninstall - uninstall the service(s)
To stop a specific service, pass the argument
tomcat
or mysql
in addition
to the status change argument. If you wish to change the status of
both services, do not specify a service name. You may also
uninstall the services using this batch file.
Configuration of the dashboard begins immediately after the Service Manager is installed. To continue a Windows installation skip the next section and go to Section 2.2.7, “MySQL Enterprise Service Manager Configuration Settings and Advisor Installation”.
