Application Control and Status

The functioning system is comprised of applications. Each application has a name and a version number. An application may have multiple processes running within and each process has its own state.

Application Status

The command app status is used to display the status of the system. When the command is executed, it requests an up-to-date status of every application and process, and hence may take a few seconds to return.

A typical app status screen from the command line interface:

Applications can have multiple processes running within it - each with its state displayed. The following states are defined:

• running indicates that the process is running correctly.

• completed indicates that the process ran to completion successfully.

• suspended indicates that the process is suspended while waiting for another process.

• stopped indicates that the process is not running. An error message indicates that the process stopped for an unexpected reason.

• disabled indicates that the application is not licensed.
