Use the Administrator tool to enable or disable a Web Services Hub. You can disable a Web Services Hub to perform maintenance or to temporarily restrict users from accessing web services. Enable a disabled Web Services Hub to make it available again.
The PowerCenter Repository Service associated with the Web Services Hub must be running before you enable the Web Services Hub. If a Web Services Hub is associated with multiple PowerCenter Repository Services, at least one of the PowerCenter Repository Services must be running before you enable the Web Services Hub.
