To start or stop a frontend process (or other process) then click
on the programs button of the status page. This provides a menu that
lists the various processes and a button for either starting a
halted process or stopping a running process.
Clicking a link in the programs table gives the ODB entry for the
selected process, e.g. the sub-directory Programs/fewfd01 for the
WFD01 frontend process. The directory contains the start command
that's issued to run the program. For fewfd01 it reads
screen -d -m -S wfd01 ssh -l root fe03 -t
/home/mulan/muLan/WFDOLD/fewfd -h be01
which runs the executable fewfd in the /home/mulan/muLan/WFDOLD
directory on the frontend machine fe01. The routine is run as root
via the screen utility.
