To check the status of the server, type the following at the unix prompt:


Code Block
languagebash
 ecflow_client --stats

 


Examine the output. If the ecflow_server is halted you would restart with:


Code Block
languagebash
ecflow_client --restart
 


Once the ecflow_server is running you have to start the suite by typing:


Code Block
languagebash
ecflow_client --begin=test
 


Python

Restarting and beginning the suite can also be done with the Client Server API.
Modify your client.py file and then run it.

 

Warning
If you had previously loaded the suite, then comment out the ci.load(..) statement

 

Code Block
languagepy
title$HOME/course/client.py
import ecflow
 
try:
    ci = print("Loading definition in 'test.def' into the server")
    ci = ecflow.Client(ecflow.Client()
    ci.sync_local()   # get the defs from the server, and place on ci
    defs = ci.get_defs() # retrieve the defs from ci
    if defs == None:     
        print("No definition in server, loading defs from disk")
        ci.load("test.def")
         
        print( "Restarting the server. This starts job scheduling")
        ci.restart_server()
    else:
        print("read definition from disk and replace on the server")
        ci.replace("/test", "test.def") 
 
    print("Begin the suite named 'test'")
    ci.begin_suite("test")
 
except RuntimeError as e:
    print("Failed:",    e)


What to do

  1. Restart the ecflow_server
  2. Begin the suite
