Force a DSA to Stop Using a Command Line

If you need to stop a DSA that has a multiwrite queue and Wait for Multiwrite is selected, use the dxserver forcestop command. This command stops a DSA even if it has multiwrite queues.

Note: We strongly recommend that you do not use a force stop in a production environment.

To force a DSA to stop using a command line

1. Open a command line with the appropriate user permissions.

   On UNIX, use DSA user.

   On Windows, use Control User or Super User.

2. Enter the following command:

   dxserver forcestop dsaname
