Usage
None
Use this command only when
RidgelineServer is completely shutdown.
See the RidgelineServer31 status
command.
Although this command stops the
RidgelineServer first if it is currently
running, a clean RidgelineServer
shutdown before the RidgelineDB
shutdown cannot be assured.
RidgelineDB must be running before
RidgelineServer can start.
Use RidgelineServer status to verify that
the service is fully stopped.
Use this command to determine whether
the RidgelineServer is running or not, and
to verify that it is completely shutdown
after issuing RidgelineServer31 stop.
