Stopping & Starting the services for Teradata Viewpoint are the same in Teradata Express as they would be on an actual Teradata Viewpoint server. Recently I needed to do this as a resolution to a support issue.
First check the status to see if Viewpoint is running. By default, Viewpoint is not running in the Teradata Express VM. As root or a privileged user run the following command:
/opt/teradata/viewpoint/bin/vp-control.sh status
To start the Viewpoint services, run the following command:
/opt/teradata/viewpoint/bin/vp-control.sh start
When the status command is run after the Viewpoint is started, the results will look the picture below.
When Viewpoint is required to be stopped, running the following command:
/opt/teradata/viewpoint/bin/vp-control.sh stop
Viewpoint also has a simple restart command:
/opt/teradata/viewpoint/bin/vp-control.sh restart
