Domino Controller - How to QUIT

HCL Domino Domino Forum
1

We are running Domino server as a server Controller. We always quit the server via windows lotus domino service which does not shut down the server properly and we end up running nsd -kill to terminate all the processes.

Is there any other way to Stop the server if we are running Server Controller ?

Thanks

  • Just close the Java console and it should pop a dialog asking if you wouild like to shut down the server and the controller as well. Click the checkbox and “Ok”.

Hope this helps…

When we log onto server via RDP we have to manually lunch jconsole.exe in order to get the console, it does not come up on its own.

Hence we quit the server via services which causes issues as I mentioned in my above post.

Subject: Makre sure you’re using the /ADMIN command line switch for RDP to see the desktop and what’s running.

  • Just put jconsole.exe in Startup and it’ll load when you RDP in. If that doesn’t work, put a link to jconsole on the desktop. You’re loading another tool to close it with services, just load jconsole instead, and no hunting for the right service to shut down.

Hope this helps…
