Quit Domino Server from Command Line 3

[andrewclarke]

Is it possible to quit Domino Server from the command line.

The backup software is causing problems with some of the user mailboxes. I can run a program before and after the backup and one option I'm looking at is stopping the Domino Server for the duration of the backup. ;-)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, nserver -q from the NT command line will shut down the server.

I should state, that the above is applicable if the server was started using nserver.exe, not via Services. If it was started via Services, you'll need to type {Net Stop "Lotus Domino Server"}, minus the squigglies

Thanks a lot. I'll post details of how I get on with this.

I would like to end and start Domino from a Linux batch file. Does anyone know how this can be done?

server -c "quit" will send the quit command to the console, you need to be in the correct directory to do this; /opt/lotus/bin

Hello,

I'm trying to stop a Domino server (6.5.3 PF1) on a W2K03 server using the command line "net stop" as domino is running as a service.

Domino is quite long to finish, so the net stop return an error after 2 minutes, while domino needs around 7 minutes to stop properly.

Is there any way to stop it quicker or make the net stop wait untill the end. Or maybe use domino n<command> to stop every task step by step ?


Thanks for you help
