apstop command

The apstop command stops the appliance software stack, which comprises the appliance application and platform manager.

When no parameters are specified, the command stops the appliance application, platform applications and platform management. Platform manager's state is Inactive, that is, platform manager is started but no monitoring takes place. The appliance application is also stopped.

Syntax

apstop [[-v]{--service | -a | -p [-m]} [--ignore_backup | -h]

Parameters

-v|--verbose

Displays some additional information from the logs.

Stops only the management platform leaving the appliance application intact. A sample output follows:
[root@node0101-fab ~]# apstop -p

-m|--monitored_apps

--ignore_backup
Ignores the ongoing database backup and stops the appliance application anyway.
-h|--help
Displays help for the command.
