# Stop the Distributed Index Handler

You can stop the DIH 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 DIH is running, and `servicePort` is the component service port (which is specified in the `[Service]`section of the HPE Distributed Index Handler configuration file).

- 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 DIH service, and click Stop to stop HPE Distributed Index Handler.

  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 DIH

  - On system V platforms:

        service DIH stop

  - On Solaris platforms (using System V):

        /etc/init.d/DIH stop

- On UNIX platforms, you can also use the stop script, `stop-dih.sh`.
