Start, Stop, and Restart Platform Manager Services

Only Global Admins or Restricted Admins with elevated View and Manage privileges can take this action.

The Alarming and Response Manager (ARM) of the Platform Manager can be started or stopped from Deployment Manager or from the Services Control Panel on the Data Processor server. You can also modify the default ARM configuration to start at system boot time which is recommended after the ARM has been configured and tested.

To control the ARM from within Deployment Manager

1. On the main toolbar, click Deployment Manager.
2. Click the Platform Manager tab.
3. In the Alarming, Reporting, and Response Manager Services section, click the appropriate button for the action to be performed (Start, Restart, or Stop). 
   An entry appears in the Service Request pane, at the bottom of the Client Console screen.
4. To access the Service Request, click on the Service Request tab in the lower-left corner of the screen.
   Details regarding ARM start, restart, and stop are also in the scarm.log file. The default location for the file is C:\Program Files\LogRhythm\LogRhythm Alarming and Response Manager\logs.

Start, stop, and restart can also be managed through the systems Services, generally found on Windows by going to the Control Panel, clicking Administrative Tools, then clicking Services. In the Properties dialog box, you can also set the Startup type to Automatic or Manual.
