Server List Menu Items

Displays the Server Detail screen. The Server Detail screen contains more information for the server on which the cursor is positioned. This screen is available only for the Ingres DBMS Server and Ingres Star Servers.

Displays the Session List screen. The Session List screen shows all of the sessions for the server on which the cursor is positioned. The information displayed includes the session name and session id. This screen is available only for the Ingres DBMS Server and Ingres Star Server.

Displays the Detailed Process Information screen. The Detailed Process Information screen shows various job and process information (JPI) for the server on which the cursor is positioned. Such information includes CPU time, Direct I/O, Buffered I/O, Enqueue limit, and so on. This display automatically refreshes and can be selected for any server except the Name Server.

Displays a submenu that allows a privileged user to shut down a server normally or in an emergency. Only the Ingres DBMS Server or Ingres Star Server can be specified. Available choices are:

Same as set server shutdown in iimonitor, Soft_Shutdown is preferred, provided it is OK to wait until the current sessions end before the server stops. After this menu item is executed, the connection to the server is maintained and the submenu reappears. This allows the Hard_Shutdown menu item to be selected, if desired. If IPM is connected to the server you are trying to shut down, you must exit from IPM for the shutdown to complete.

Same as stop server in iimonitor. Use this instead of operating system commands like VMS stop or UNIX kill -9. Executing this menu item immediately stops the server and breaks out of the submenu.

Drops the server connection after Soft_Shutdown and returns to the Server List screen. After using this option, you cannot reconnect to the server.

Queries the Name Server for a list of servers. If there are none, IPM displays a message to that effect and returns to the Main Menu screen.
