The settings you modify or add for that domain will be saved in the *PS_ENVFILE
section one of the following files, depending on the domain type:
JRAD_PORT Jolt internet relay port number. This is the same as the Listener Port parameter
in the JOLT Relay Adapter section of the PSAPPSRV.CFG file.

Boot Domain:
-------------------------------
PeopleSoft Domain Boot Menu
-------------------------------
Domain Name: DOC
1) Boot (Serial Boot)
2) Parallel Boot
q) Quit
Command to execute (1-2, q) [q]:
You have two booting options: a serial boot and a parallel boot.
Running a Serial Boot
A serial boot starts server processes in a sequential order, with one process beginning to start
after the previous process has completely started.
Running a Parallel Boot
A parallel boot starts server processes at the same time, rather than having each process start
sequentially. This option typically provides shorter boot durations.
Shutting Down a Domain
-------------------------------
PeopleSoft Domain Shutdown Menu
-------------------------------
Domain Name: psdmo
1) Normal shutdown
2) Forced shutdown
q) Quit
Command to execute (1-2, q) [q]:
Performing a Normal Shutdown
A normal shutdown is a quiescent shutdown that waits for users to complete their tasks and
turns away new requests before terminating all of the processes in the domain.
Performing a Forced Shutdown
A forced shutdown is a nonquiescent shutdown that immediately terminates all of the
processes in the domain. Normally, you use the forced shutdown only when a Bulletin Board
Liaison (BBL) process encounters errors and cannot be shut down by using a normal
shutdown.
Checking the Domain Status
Use the PeopleSoft Domain Status menu to view the status of the server, queues, or clients
connected to the domain.
-----------------------------
PeopleSoft Domain Status Menu
-----------------------------
Domain Name: psdmo
1) Server status
2) Client status
3) Queue status
q) Quit
Command to execute (1-3, q) [q]:
Server Status
Select Server status to invoke the Tuxedo tmadmin psr subcommand (print server
processes), which displays the Tuxedo processes and PeopleSoft server processes that are
currently running. For example:
Client Status
Select Client status to invoke the Tuxedo tmadmin pclt subcommand (printclient), which
displays connected users
Purging the Domain Cache
A proven technique for resolving problem application server environments is to purge the
application server domain cache located in PS_CFG_HOME\appserv\domain_name\CACHE.
Creating Cache Projects
To create cache projects:
1. In a browser, select PeopleTools, Utilities, Administration, PreLoad Cache, Select
Preload Objects.

Creating a Domain
Creating a PIA domain using PSADMIN provides an option to using the PeopleSoft
Multiplatform PIA install program.
