- in Windows Task Manager using the Services tab
- on CMD or Powershell:
net start sm_main - on CMD or Powershell:
<SESAM_BIN>\bin\sesam\sm_main start(for RDS and Client components)
- Stop

- in Windows Task Manager using the Services tab
- on CMD or Powershell:
net stop sm_main - on CMD or Powershell:
<SESAM_BIN>\bin\sesam\sm_main stop(for RDS and Client components) - on CMD or Powershell:
<SESAM_BIN>\bin\sesam\sm_shutdown -f(available on SEP sesam Server only, cleanly stops all processes and can be used for debugging or error checking purposes)

<SESAM_BIN>/bin/sesam/sm_main start(for RDS and Client components) - in the Linux shell:
<SESAM_BIN>/bin/sesam/sm_startup(available on SEP sesam Server only)
- Stop
- in the Linux shell:
/etc/init.d/sesam stop(distrib. with INIT start system) - in the Linux shell:
systemctl stop sepsesam.service(distrib. with SYSTEMD start system) - in the Linux shell:
<SESAM_BIN>/bin/sesam/sm_main stop(for RDS and Client components) - in the Linux shell:
<SESAM_BIN>/bin/sesam/sm_shutdown(available on SEP sesam Server only, cleanly stops all processes and can be used for debugging or error checking purposes)
