Using the Services Utility from a Command Line
When using the Services utility from a command line, note that:
•
Unlike in Dashboard use, you can stop services whose Type is Critical (service type is defined
in the user-modifiable processinfo.xml file.)\
•
Prior to stopping a service, you should be aware of the significance of stopping it, including
any dependant services that may be affected.
•
The Services utility will not allow you to stop services with peer or child dependencies while
those dependencies are running. If you attempt to stop such a service, the utility returns a
message stating that dependent services are running.
