stop both IBM HTTP Server and WebSphere Application
Server components of CM Server:

You can also manually start and stop CM Server by running

If you have more than one profile in use (for example, one for
CM Server and another for RequisitePro® Web), you

- On Windows:
%was_bin%\stopServer server1 -profileName cmprofile
%was_bin%\startServer server1 -profileName cmprofile
- On the UNIX system and Linux:
$WAS_BIN/stopServer server1 -profileName cmprofile
$WAS_BIN/startServer server1 -profileName cmprofile
