At times it will be necessary to restart the ICOBOL icexec process. This can be accomplished using the following.

Log on as administrator (you MUST be logged in as administrator to perform this operation).

Verify that everyone is logged out of MC

Click on Start >> Settings >> Control Panel >> Services

On Win 2000 Pro: Start >> Settings >> Control Panel >> Administrative Tools >> Services)

Scroll down and find the icexec Service and single click to select it.
Click on the Stop button and wait for the service to show a blank in the Status column.

To restart icexec, do the following:

Click on the Start button in the Services window. The Status column should now display Started.

This will restart icexec. This should be done whenever there are changes made to the ICOBOL configuration or you have had users terminated abnormally and they still show in the MC user display they are logged in. You will also need to do the process to clear the MC user display after you restart icexec.

At times it will be necessary to restart the ICOBOL icexec process. This can be accomplished using the following commands at the # prompt.

Log on as root (you MUST be logged in as root to perform this operation).

Verify that everyone is logged out of MC.

type ps -ef | grep icrun press <ENTER>
The display should look something like this, if everyone is logged off:

# ps -ef | grep icrun
root 27812 5135 1 11:32:58 pts/7 0:00 grep icrun
#

If the display shows more entries than root (your users' names), this means people are still logged on. Have everyone log out and repeat this process until only the 'root grep icrun' shows up like the example above.

After everyone is logged out of MC, do the following:

type cd /mc/cobol press <ENTER>
type ./icexec -O t

To restart icexec do the following:

type ./icexec

This will restart icexec. This should be done whenever there are changes made to the ICOBOL configuration or you have had users terminated abnormally and they still show in the MC user display that they are logged in. You will also need to do the process to clear the MC user display after you restart icexec.
