Manually do a Warm or Warm All Restart of the FactoryTalk Batch Server

This task explains how to manually do a Warm Restart or Warm All Restart of the
FactoryTalk® Batch
 Server in case of a system or service failure.
If the
FactoryTalk Batch
 Server service stops, then you need to manually restart the service using the
FactoryTalk Batch
 Service Manager. A Warm Restart or Warm All Restart will restart the server in a manual mode and a held state, restoring the set of batches that were on the batch list when the server previously terminated. These restart types require operator interaction.
To do a Warm Restart or Warm All Restart of the
FactoryTalk Batch
 Server:
  1. In
    Start
    Rockwell Software
    Batch Service Manager
    , select
    Batch Service Manager
    . The
    Batch Service Manager
     opens.
  2. Select
    Warm Restart
     or
    Warm All Restart
     as the startup type.
  3. Select
    Start/Continue
     to start the service. Wait for the status to change to RUNNING and the light to turn green.
  4. Open
    FactoryTalk Batch View
    .
    Batches on the batch list before the failure are still on the batch list. All batches that had phases in an active state now have transitions in the HELD state, and are in MANUAL mode with a failure.
  5. Select the batch, and then select
    Auto
     to place a batch in AUTOMATIC mode.
  6. Select
    Clear All Failures
     to clear the failures.
  7. Select the batch, and then select
    Restart Batch
    .
    The previously active phases return to a RUNNING state and the batch completes.
