IT-Conductor enables users to automate the Start/Stop process of SAP and non-SAP systems . It can be applied to a single system or multiple systems , and can be manually executed or scheduled. The feature is highly adaptable to any customer environment , and can be a crucial component of IT maintenance operations.
...
To use this feature, users need to add their systems to IT-Conductor for monitoring.
...
Once the system is added, depending on the system and requirements from the customer, process definitions will be created. An IT-Conductor robot account should be created and associated to the application/DB/OS users with assigned role/privilege to execute the local action on the system to be stopped/started. This IT-Conductor robot account should own the Process definition.
...
For example, the following process is for a an SAP System with a HANA Database running on AWS.

Note: For this automation, an object for work queue must have been previously created in order to link IT-Conductor to the AWS Account. This object, will allow us to start or stop the VM as part of the process definition. |
...
This object , will allow us to start or stop the VM as part of the process definition.

2. The following step on the process will start the HANA Instance running on the VM. This process will execute am SSH Command on the VM via the SAP Hostagent. In the scenario below, there is only ONE tenant in a multi-tenant HANA system, thus a single start of the HANA system will start the tenant. IT-Conductor also supports start/stop operations for a specific tenant in a multi-tenant system with support for SQL command executed against the HANA SYSTEMDB database to control an individual tenant.
...
3. Once the HANA System is running, the process will execute the last step, to start the SAP System via SSH Command
...
4. With this step, the process definition will be finished completed and all the steps will change color from blue to green.
...
2. Once the SAP System has stopped, the next step in the process will stop the HANA System. Similar to the Start of HANA step, IT-Conductor can also support stopping of a specific tenant via SQL command executed on the HANA SYSTEMDB database.
...
3. The last step is to stop the running VM
