Hi All
After successfully deployment of any application in BizTalk server 2020 through Devops, BizTalk server automatically starts the application.
Is there any way we can stop the application either by using Post processing Script in BizTalkServerInventory.Json or by any other process post deployment within the same release
Currently we are using PowerShell script to run after deployment which stops the application successfully after dpeloyment. but there is gap for some micro seconds between Biztalk application deployment run completes and Stop application script starts. Due to which application picks the incoming file, if any and couldnot process it and the stop application scripts executed.
so to avoid this we need to stop the application while deployment under deployment sequence.
appreciate your help here :)
@Colin Dijkgraaf @i am working as a Biztalkdeveloper @Microsoft BizTalk Consultant @BizTalkJackie
this is the below Json script we are using by adding one task for powerhsell and we are using the below arguments and application name reference from the script in the same CD pipeline :
if ($args.count -eq 0) {
"You must specify the BizTalk Application name to stop!"
}
else{
$BTSAppName = $args[0]
$SQLInstance = $args1
$BizTalkManagementDb ="BizTalkmgmtdb"
[void] [System.reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM")
$Catalog = New-Object Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM.BtsCatalogExplorer
$Catalog.ConnectionString = "SERVER=$SQLInstance;DATABASE=$BizTalkManagementDb;Integrated Security=SSPI"
$BTSApp = $Catalog.Applications[$BTSAppName]
if ($BTSApp.Status -ne "stopped")
{
"Stopping" + $BTSApp.Name
$BTSApp.Stop("StopAll")
$catalog.SaveChanges()
}
else
{
$BTSApp.Name + " is already stopped"
}
}

Hi @Yamina Jabeen ,
there is a new Deployment-Task:
On this Task you can define if you like to start the application after deployment
@bkrieger thanks for your response but i checked in Devops but there is no new task as you are mentioning
# From PowerShell (Locally or using a remote session)
Get-Service -Name BTSNTSvc* | Where-Object {$_.Status -eq 'Running'} | Stop-Service
but where do we need to run/add the script?
@David Downing pls reply

Hello Yamina,
This can be run from PowerShell on the servers running BizTalk. It will stop all in-process BizTalk services. You can run the following to start all BizTalk in-process services.
Get-Service -Name BTSNTSvc* | Where-Object {$_.Status -eq 'Running'} | Start-Service
If you are running out of process BizTalk services like IIS, you must also stop them.
In terms of stopping a BizTalk Application, the script above should stop the BizTalk application(s), but stopping an application only disables receive locations and stops send ports and orchestrations. If BizTalk assemblies are loaded by the service and then updated by a deployment, the services must be stopped/started before they will loaded.
HTH

Hello Yamina,
This command can be run from PowerShell on the servers running BizTalk or using a remote PowerShell session to the servers running BizTalk.
You can also run the following to start the BizTalk in-process services:
Get-Service -Name BTSNTSvc* | Where-Object {$_.Status -eq 'Running'} | Start-Service
When stopping a BizTalk application; the receive ports are disabled and the send ports and orchestrations are stopped.
After a new deployment of BizTalk assemblies, in most cases the BizTalk services must be stopped/started to allow the new assemblies to be loaded.
From my experience I've used the following sequence:
Stop Application(s)
Stop Services
Deploy
Start Services
Start Applications
i need to stop application inside devops automatically using powershell script
