Enabling and Disabling the Metadata Manager Service
Enabling and Disabling the Metadata Manager Service
Use the Administrator tool to enable, disable, or recycle the Metadata Manager Service. Disable a Metadata Manager Service to perform maintenance or to temporarily restrict users from accessing Metadata Manager. When you disable the Metadata Manager Service, you also stop Metadata Manager. You might recycle a service if you modified a property. When you recycle the service, the Metadata Manager Service is disabled and enabled.
When you enable the Metadata Manager Service, the Service Manager starts the Metadata Manager application on the node where the Metadata Manager Service runs. If the PowerCenter repository does not contain the Metadata Load folder, the Administrator tool imports the metadata objects required by Metadata Manager into the PowerCenter repository.
You can enable, disable, and recycle the Metadata Manager Service from the
Actions
menu.
The PowerCenter Repository Service for Metadata Manager must be enabled and running before you can enable the Metadata Manager Service.
