On base 6.40 there were stopigs/startigs scripts, yes. When we upgraded our systems to 7.0 I encountered the same problem, the igs could be stopped, but not started anymore (externally). Can you check, if the startigs/stopigs-scripts are 7.0 or 6.40.

I then opened an oss and got as answer:

"To start and to stop the igs there's only the offical way by stopping and starting the sap system".

However I found a solution to start and stop:

start:

nohup /sapmnt/<SID>/exe/igswd_mt -mode=profile pf=/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/profile/<Instaneprofile> &

e.g.:

nohup /sapmnt/P72/exe/igswd_mt -mode=profile pf=/usr/sap/P72/SYS/profile/P72_DVEBMGS01_migzmc10 &

stop:

--> stopigs, therefore the 6.40-stopigs script has to remain in the exe directory.

Hope this helps.
