Starting and Stopping VectorH
Start or Shut Down the Vector Instance
You start or shut down VectorH on the master node using the ingstart or ingstop commands. VectorH on the slave nodes is started and stopped automatically.
Note:  You must shut down VectorH before shutting down the HDFS or the Hadoop cluster.
To start the instance
1. Log on to your system through the system administrator account for the instance and source the environment script (see How to Access the Instance on Linux on page 36).
2. Enter the following command:
ingstart
The ingstart command checks whether you have enough operating system resources to run the product components. If so, ingstart starts all servers that are part of your instance.
To stop the instance
Enter the following command:
ingstop
The instance is stopped.

Start Vector as a Service
During installation, a script is generated that automatically starts Vector as a service unless you used the ingbuild distribution.
Note:  To generate and install the script, use the mkrc command.
The generated script to start Vector for Linux as a service is installed under /etc/init.d. The service is named actian-vectorXX, where XX is the instance ID, the value for II_INSTALLATION, specified during installation (default is VW for Vector and VH for VectorH).
To start the Vector instance as a service
Run the following as root:
/sbin/service actian-vectorXX start
where XX is the instance ID.
To stop and restart the service
Use the following commands:
/sbin/service actian-vectorXX stop
/sbin/service actian-vectorXX restart
where XX is the instance ID.
