What happens if Channel started but inactive?

Hi.
While monitoring the training server, i found there are 100 channels with yellow color status "Channel started but inactive".
All these channels are not SOAP or MAIL channels. Most are FILE, JDBC, JMS channels.
I know that we can stop the channels in RWB but what happens if these channels are kept with that yellow status? If i stop these channels will it improve the performance??
Kindly let me know how it will effect the performance.
Thanks... !
Warm regards,
Praveen.

Hi,
While monitoring the training server, i found there are 100 channels with yellow color status "Channel started but inactive". - It means there was no msg for these channels so they are inactive......when there will be msgs for these channels, then those msgs will be processed by these channels and its status will change to running........
I know that we can stop the channels in RWB but what happens if these channels are kept with that yellow status? - No performance impact because of this inactive channels :).............
If i stop these channels will it improve the performance?? - Do not stop these channels but keep them started..........

  • "Channel started but Inactive" - Issue with JDBC channels

    Hi all,
    I have 5 channels configured with Oracle which were functioning till yesterday night properly. All of a sudden 3 out of them have decided not to co-operate and they show a status in RWB as "Channel started but Inactive".
    The rest two are functioning correctly which is more weird.
    I did the following:
    1. Complete cache refresh.
    2. Delta cache refresh
    3. channel was copied with a new name and used and it works but this doesnt make any sense.There has to be a proper way to deal with this situation.
    4. All channels are activated in ID.
    Has anybody faced similar issues with JDBC or any other type channels?
    Regards,
    Amol Joshi

    Hi Amol,
    Usually the channel information is available in the monitor after the service and the channel are activated successfully.
    However, in the case of the SOAP adapter, the
    adapter status is not available until the first request is sent to the adapter.
    For JDBC Adapter try to:
    1. Re-configure JDBC parameters, it might happened that it is not able to establish a database connection.
    Just re-enter and activate the same.
    2.goto to the IR adn ID and run the cache ,you will  get the cache objects list in red color check the error details there, make sure the AE cache is up and running fine.
    goto to the RWB>cache monitoring or status->check the cache status of the AE and IS, it should be green in color,
    run the CPA cache from the URL with the PIDIRUSER ...then again run the cache from IR and ID and check.
    Also check :
    1.if you have right permission to write the data to the table
    2. Check whether that table takes NULL values, if so check what data is being supplied by XI to the receiver end.

  • "Channel started but inactive" in RWB Monitor for SOAP sender channel

    Dear XI specialists,
    I have configured a communication scenario involving SOAP Adapter (sender) usage, but I'm facing the issue when testing the scenario. The problem is that none of messages are coming into the SOAP Adapter (checked via TCode SXI_MONITOR in XI) when using 3rd party SOAP-clients (XML Spy, soapUI) based on WSDL-file generated and exported from XI.
    I checked the sender communication channel for SOAP Adapter - it is activated in Integration Builder's Directory. SOAP Adapter itself is also started.
    I checked Runtime Workbench monitors and in the Communication Channels Monitor of the Components Monitor received the warning saying "Channel started but inactive" for my configured channel as well as for other channels working on SOAP Adapter.
    Activities which were performed (in the order in which they were performed and results tested):
    1. the configuration channel restart;
    2. the communication channel re-activation and further re-start;
    3. SOAP Adapter restart;
    4. XI system's Java instance restart.
    All mentioned activities didn't give any positive effect in part of this issue resolution.
    On the other hand, if I use test message functionality of the Runtime Workbench (Component Monitor), then messages are seen in SXI_MONITOR and expected response messages are also returned to XI from integrated business system.
    Would you please advise what can be checked else here and where the root of the problem may be detected?
    All your answers and feedback will be greatly appreciated and awarded accordingly.
    Many thanks in advance and my regards,
    Vadim

    Dear all,
    Thank you for your input! Unfortunately, the problem still exists after testings and checkings which you suggested.
    TO Seshagiri:
    I checked message monitor and found only several messages for the required sender/receiver services pair in the used namespace - all of them were successfully processed (these are messages which I sent by means of RWB Component Monitor's test message functionality).
    TO Sarvesh:
    Yes, sender agreement is configured properly. I configured it when configuring communication scenario in the Configuration Wizard and then manually re-checked its definition. Moreover, when performing Test Configuration in ID, I received positive results.
    TO Nallam Guna:
    I cleared Data Cache in Integration Builder, but this didn't help.
    TO Gujjeti:
    I'm on SAP NetWeaver 2004s PI 7.0. Service Pack level for PI is 13.
    TO Durga:
    Thank you for provided links! I have already had a look at them - but proposed solutions doesn't seem to be working in my situation.
    Thank you all once again for your prompt answers! I really appreciate your attempts in helping me!
    I would appreciate if you could share any further ideas on this issue.

  • SOAP adapter - Channel started but inactive (case inside)

    Good day everyone!
      I have integration scenario IDOC->XI->SOAP. I did all setting and created SOAP adapter with 2 parametrs: "Target URL" and "SOAP Action".
      But when I look at Channel Monitoring I see my SOAP-channel with status "Channel started but inactive" ??
    What could it be?
    Thanks in advance!

    hi,
    this issue is too common. i face it i some of my channels. there no error.
    test your scenario. im sure it will work but the adapter still has been in yellow at least it fails and turn red.
    I have some CC in red status and working fine. later few minutes it turn  green.
    don worry about it. if you leave it working it will turn green later. if u restart the java stack you can solve it but i dont recommend it because this error could appear in other adaprter too.
    commonly it appear when you start and stop the channel from RWB.
    Hope Helps
    thanks
    Rodrigo.

  • RWB  issue Channel started but inactive

    Hi,
    In RWB  the SOAP adapter is showing status message as"Channel started but inactive" but all the SOAP adapters are active in Directory.
    This is happening only in new environment Pre-Production.
    Valueable inputs will be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Santosh

    Hi Santosh,
    SOAP adapter shows "Channel started but inactive" message when there are no messages processed till now(after activating any changes to comm channel or server is restarted).  Once a message is triggered in SOAP adapter, this will go away.  Try to trigger a message and see.

    Hi,
    Try to do the CPACache Refresh.
    Also adapter metadata Refresh ( Integration Builder->Admin->Cache Overview)
    Also restarting Adapter engine may also help here.

    Hi Vishwanadh,
    We have faced the same issue for the past two days and the sam has got resolved automatically while testing the scenario. So please go ahead with your testing, the channel will then be activated automatically.
    Before that clear the CPAcache with the user PIISUSER (make sure that the user is having access to SAP_XI_Administrator_J2EE and SAP_XI_Configuratoe_J2EE

  • SOAP Adapter status stay "Channel started but inactive"

    Hi, Folks:
    We have a couple of SOAP adapters that I have not used for a while, so I put them in inactive status.
    Now we need to switch SOAP Scenario, I activate them, however, in Communication Monitoring Page, The status is Yellow Triangle: "Channel started but inactive"
    I have tried to inactivate and reactivate them for a couple of times, it does not help.
    Any ideas are welcomed !

  • SOAP Sender - RWB "Channel started but inactive"

    I have a sender soap channel configured. In Integration Directory the Adapter Status is active. However when I go to Runtime Workbench and view the channel it says the "Channel is started but inactive". Can someone explain to me why it is not active in Runtime Workbench?
    Also, SOAP messages sent to this channel are failing obviously because the channel is inactive. How can I make this channel active so that XI can receive SOAP requests.

    hi rodel,
    You have to process one message at least to make SOAP adapter Active
    refer this discussion
    how can i enable SOAP Adapter?

    I have been watching Heartland on the Up channel 224 for a few years now. I went to set it up to record today and the channel is now gone. There is no channle 224 anymore. Does anyone know what happened?

    Check your message center in your menu. Should have been notified of the channel being moved to ch. 238. "On or after July 20, 2015, the following Fios TV channel positions are changing: UP will move from ch. 224 to ch. 238 - Sony Movie Channel HD will move from ch. 735 to channel 737 - Sundance HD will move from ch. 733 to channel 735"
