Path: Port 9443 Search Appliance Console > Configuration > Services

Table 16-2 Using the Services dialog to manage Search Appliance services

Field, Option, or Button	Information and/or Action
Messaging Service	Displays the status of the Messaging service on this appliance (Enabled or Disabled). You can change to the status indicated on the button by clicking it, provided that your action won’t cause a state where none of the Search appliances is running the Messaging service. Best practice is to run the Messaging service on two of the appliances. The TeamWorks system enforces running the Messaging service on at least one Search appliance.
Search Services Health	Green: Indicates that the Search system is healthy. Yellow: Indicates that the Search system is working to restore itself to a healthy state. For example, the system is reallocating Search Index Shards within the Search cluster. Such operations should not normally require more than a few minutes to complete, at this point the health status should return to green. Red: Indicates that the Search system was unable to restore itself to a healthy state. Resolving this requires that you contact Micro Focus Support. Checking: Indicates that the Search system is assessing its health status.
Decommission Appliance	Use this option when you are permanently removing a Search appliance from your TeamWorks deployment. The option only works when Search Cluster Health is green. For more information, see Permanently Removing (Decommissioning) a Search Appliance in the TeamWorks 18.2.1: Maintenance Best Practices Guide.
