NAME
asadmin-stop-domain, stop-domain - stops the given domain SYNOPSIS
stop-domain [--domaindir install_dir/domains][--terse=false] [--echo=false] [domain_name] stop-domain stops the specified domain. If there is only one domain in the default domain directory (install_dir/domains), then no operand is required to stop the domain. However, if there is more than one domain, the domain operand must be specified. This command is supported in local mode only. OPTIONS
--domaindir directory where the domain is to be stopped. If specified, path must be accessible in the filesystem. If not speci- fied, the domainis stopped in the default install_dir/domains directory. --terse indicates that any output data must be very concise, typically avoiding human-friendly sentences and favoring well- formatted data for consumption by a script. Default is false. --echo setting to true will echo the command line statement on the standard output. Default is false. OPERANDS
domain_name name of the domain. Must be a unique name. Example 1: Using stop-domain asadmin> stop-domain sampleDomain Stoping Domain sampleDomain, please wait Domain sampleDomain stopped Command stop-domain executed successfully Where: the sampleDomain domain in the default domains directory is stopped. EXIT STATUS
