# Stop Knowledge Discovery

You can stop a Knowledge Discovery component from running in several different ways.

- (All Platforms) Send the `Stop` service action to the component service port:

      http://host:servicePort/action=stop

  where `host` is the name or IP address of the host on which the component is running, and `servicePort` is the component service port (which is specified in the `[Service]`section of the component configuration file).

  NOTE: It can take a short while for the Content process to stop after you have sent the stop action to Knowledge Discovery.

- On Windows platforms, when the component is installed as a service, you can use the system dialog box to stop the service:

  1. Display the Windows Services dialog box.

  2. Select the service, and click Stop.

  3. Click Close to close the Services dialog box.

- On UNIX platforms, when the component is installed as a service, you can run one of the following commands to stop the service:

  - On systemd platforms:

        systemctl stop ServiceName

  - On system V platforms:

        service ServiceName stop
