Stopping a Service

Use the following command line syntax to stop an individual service on the current node:

# service servicename stop

Use the pdsh or cexec command with the service command, as shown here, to stop a service on one or more designated nodes:

# cexec -w nodename "/sbin/service servicename stop"

Use the following command to stop the service on all nodes:

# cexec -a "/sbin/service servicename stop"
