Starting and stopping the application server and appservman

If you need to stop and restart WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base, for example to implement a change in the application server configuration, use the following conman commands:
conman stopappserver[domain!]workstation [;wait]
This command stops the application server and appservman. You can optionally stop the application server on a remote workstation. The optional ;wait parameter tells conman to suspend processing until the command reports that both the application server and the service have stopped.
conman startappserver[domain!]workstation [;wait]
This command starts the application server and appservman. You can optionally start the application server on a remote workstation. The optional ;wait parameter tells conman to suspend processing until the command reports that both the application server and the service are up and running.

To stop and start the application server without stopping appservman, see Application server - starting and stopping.
