I recently took on some OTM Administration responsibilities. My previous experience with OTM has been with developing services to communicate to and from OTM, so I apologize if I am asking a trivial question.
Can you prevent user's from logging in while maintenance is being performed?
We had a recent situation where an electrical contractor cut the power to 1/2 the computer room. In the melee that followed, OTM was restarted before some of the downstream dependent systems, thus causing numerous HTTP errors from External Systems, Transmission reports etc.
My downstream systems require the External System pushes to be processed in order. So REDO processing doesn't work (as it doesn't necessarily reprocess in order) and I need to manually reprocess the transmissions.
It would be nice if I could start OTM in a "single user mode" where I could prevent everyone else from logging in until I could ensure all dependent systems were up or until I processed the backlog.
Does anyone have any suggestions how I might accomplish this? It would be great if it did not require bouncing OTM.
Thanks,
Janice
