Media Servers
Wowza Streaming Engine
Wowza Streaming Engine is managed by the systemd service manager so it is possible to check status and restart using standard system commands including the below. It is important to note that the stremaing server and the management interface run under two separate proceses.
systemctl status WowzaStreamingEngine; # Check Wowza streaming status
systemctl status WowzaStreamingEngineManager; # Check Wowza manager status
systemctl restart WowzaStreamingEngine; # Restarts Wowza streaming Engine
systemctl restart WowzaStreamingEngineManager; # Restarts wowza manager
Flussonic Media Server
Flussonic is managed by the systems service manager (service). It can be managed by systemd but in our experience it is better managed by the service command instead.
service flussonic status; # Check Flussonicstreaming status
service flussonic restart; # Restarts Flussonic
Nginx-Rtmp
Nginx-Rtmp Video Server is managed by MediaCP directly, it can be checked using standard MediaCP status such as systemctl status mediacp however you can manage the process independantly through the following commands.
/usr/bin/mediacp status nginx-rtmp
/usr/bin/mediacp restart nginx-rtmp
