Appian on premise automating Appian start and shutdown

I am sure there is, depending on the type of setup and OS.

Yes, I've seen it done before. Basically create a shell script with the commands and the ability to check the status of the engines start script. You just schedule that script via cron and there you go. Perhaps ChatGPT could help you generate a first version of the script.

Hi rishub9520 ,

Yes you can do it, just write a batch script and your work gets done.

For a instance, I've done the work for you, just change the path and password in the below script and save the script as start.bat/stop.bat

For starting the Appian Server, code follows: start.bat

@echo off
set APPIAN_HOME=C:\Appian\Appian

echo Starting Appian Engines...
call "%APPIAN_HOME%\services\bin\start.bat" -p "<Your Password>" -s all

echo Starting Data Server...
call "%APPIAN_HOME%\data-server\bin\start.bat"

echo Starting Search Server...
call "%APPIAN_HOME%\search-server\bin\start.bat"

echo Starting App Server (Tomcat)...
call "%APPIAN_HOME%\tomcat\apache-tomcat\bin\start-appserver.bat"

echo Appian has been started successfully.
pause

@echo off
set APPIAN_HOME=C:\Appian\Appian

echo Stopping Appian Engines...
call "%APPIAN_HOME%\services\bin\stop.bat" -p "<Your Password>" -s all

echo Stopping Data Server...
call "%APPIAN_HOME%\data-server\bin\stop.bat"

echo Stopping Search Server...
call "%APPIAN_HOME%\search-server\bin\stop.bat"

echo Stopping App Server (Tomcat)...
call "%APPIAN_HOME%\tomcat\apache-tomcat\bin\stop-appserver.bat"

echo Appian shutdown completed.
pause
