Understanding Kernel Startup

The sequence of events during kernel startup:

  1. After the Essbase Server starts, a user connects to it from a client.

  2. The user starts a database.

  3. Essbase loads the database.

  4. The Essbase Agent passes database settings to the server.

  5. The kernel begins its initialization process.

  6. The kernel starts its components—the Index Manager, Lock Manager, LRO Manager, Data Block Manager, and Transaction Manager.

If it encounters an error during start up, the Essbase Kernel shuts itself down.
