We already know the consolidated scripts to stop and start applications in R12
“adstrtal.sh” is used for starting all application services
“adstpall.sh” is used for stopping of other services.

Prior to EBS R12.2 you only need apps username and password to run this script. In EBS R12.2 you need a additional password parameter for weblogic admin server to start/stop of EBS application services.

./adstrtal.sh apps/apps
Enter the WebLogic Server password:
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/jtffmctl.sh start
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/adopmnctl.sh start
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/adapcctl.sh start
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/adnodemgrctl.sh start -nopromptmsg
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/adalnctl.sh start
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/adcmctl.sh start
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/adadminsrvctl.sh start -nopromptmsg
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/admanagedsrvctl.sh start forms_server1 -nopromptmsg
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/admanagedsrvctl.sh start forms-c4ws_server1 -nopromptmsg
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/admanagedsrvctl.sh start oafm_server1 -nopromptmsg
/xyz/ebsapp/fs1/inst/apps/TEST/admin/scripts/admanagedsrvctl.sh start oacore_server1 -nopromptmsg

In-case, you have password stored in variable , you can use below command

{ echo $APPSUSER ; echo $APPSPASS ; echo $WLSADMIN ; }| adstrtal.sh @-nopromptmsg

Important points
Opmn only manages the Apache server in R12.2
WLS (Weblogic server) manages the oacore,forms and oafm services

How to schedule to start/stop of All the services through crontab

It is often required to bounce the entire EBS system during off-hours or on weekend automatically without any manual intervention. We should be able to execute this using the cron utlity on Unix system Cron is a Unix scheduler for executing the scripts at specified time. We can create below scripts for bouncing the APPS tier on R12.2 and schedule it through cron

Here are the steps

(1) create a file  apps_user like

cat apps_user
APPS_USER=APPS
APPS_PWD=<apps pass>
WLADMIN_PWD=<WL pass>
chmod 700 apps_user
This will ensure only the user running the services can read this

(2) Create the scripts for start and stop like this

apps-start.sh
. apps_user
echo " Starting the services"
{ echo $APPS_USER; echo $APPS_PWD; echo $WLADMIN_PWD; } | $INST_TOP/admin/scripts/adstrtal.sh -nopromptmsg
echo "Services started"

apps-stop.sh
. apps_user
echo " Stopping the services"
{ echo $APPS_USER; echo $APPS_PWD; echo $WLADMIN_PWD; } | $INST_TOP/admin/scripts/adstpall.sh -nopromptmsg
echo "Services stopped"

Now we schedule these scripts through cron in Linux system to get the work done.
