Does anyone have a scripted/automated "orderly" shutdown of EAS?

[Dinosaur Matt]

...or any ideas how to write one?

We have a weekly maintenance window that typically gets used once per month to apply MS patches.

I would like to have an orderly shutdown. Because the team applying maintenance is applying it to HUNDREDS of servers, we cannot have them manually log in and stop tasks, etc. 

I need to script it to:

1. stop tasks
2. stop Storage Manager (STORM.exe) and EAS Administrator (EASViews)
3. shutdown the parent and child servers EASSRVR service
4. shutdown the IIS servers
5. shutdown the DB servers
6. when the DB server is rebooted...
   
7. start the IIS servers
8. start the parent server EASSRVR service
9. start the EASSRVR service on the child servers
10. the tasks should then run within their schedules.

If you have the EAS services stopped you don’t really need to stop tasks as they need the services to run (although you would might see errors in the log file when you re-start the services

 

See attached for some work done on creating a VB script to kill EAS processes for failover purposes which might give you some ideas (it is a zip file renamed to .txt)

Put this in a text file and rename it to StopEAS.bat

@echo off

net stop "EAS Service"
wait 10

kill.exe -f eassrvr.exe
wait 1

kill.exe -f easviews.exe
wait 1

net start "EAS Service"

exit
