How to stop process using commands

Yeswa_Vaibhav_1

What are the commands available to stop a running process from command window outside of blue prism control room? Is session id mandatory to kill or stop process through commands or is there any other commands to stop the process (like for ex: /kill "Process Name" , /stop "Process Name"). Please let me know if there are such, i haven't found them Thank you

See the command line section in the Help file. There is the /requeststop command but it requires an ID. There is no 'stop by name' function (the process could be running on more than one machine). You could invent your own mechanism, eg have the process check for the presence of a file and stop if the file exists. By creating the file from outside BP you can signal the process to stop.
