Checking AppServer status

You can check the status of a running AppServer using either the Progress Explorer or the -query option on the ASBMAN command. The returned status includes information on each AppServer agent running on the AppServer. The information on each process includes one of the status indications listed in Table 2–3.

Table 2–3: AppServer agent status indications 

Status	Description
AVAILABLE	The process is available to execute application logic.
BUSY	The process is actively executing application logic for an AppServer client. For a state-aware or state-reset AppServer, this status persists until the client disconnects from the AppServer.
LIMBO	The process is in a transitional state. If this status persists, it indicates an error condition.
LOCKED	On a stateless or state-free AppServer, the process is in a bound connection with an AppServer client. This status persists until the connection becomes unbound.
STARTING	The AppServer has started the process, but it has not yet completed initialization.
