You might experience loss of logs if you use the vmo.bat file to restart the Orchestrator server.

Problem

If you start the Orchestrator server as a service and you then restart the Orchestrator server by running the vmo.bat file directly, you can experience a potential loss of logs.

Cause

Logs can be lost if you start the Orchestrator server as a service and restart it by using the vmo.bat. This behavior can cause the server to run with different permissions.

1

2

3
