# Stop Exchange

{% hint style="info" %}
If you are a cloud user, just go to the manage section of the HollaEx Dashboard, and click the buttons on there. Simple!
{% endhint %}

## Stopping the exchange

```
hollaex server --stop
```

This command is like an "off" switch for your exchange. The command would stop the started exchange, which started with the `hollaex server --start` command.

## Restarting the exchange

```
hollaex server --restart
```

This command would restart your exchange server. The exchange should be started first, before running this action.

## Stopping the exchange web

```
hollaex web --stop
```

This command will stop the exchange web server you've started with the `hollaex web --start` command.

## Restarting the exchange web

```
hollaex web --restart
```

This command will restart your existing web server. Also, you can rebuild the web server Docker image while doing a restart. If you need to apply new code changes for your web, this is the right command.

## Terminating the exchange

{% hint style="danger" %}
This action is extremely dangerous! Terminating the exchange will completely remove all the data on your own exchange, and make the exchange unrecoverable. Think twice before running this command!
{% endhint %}

```
hollaex server --terminate
```

This command will completely destroy your exchange, from your user data, balance, server structure, everything. Your exchange will become fully unrecoverable. Again, THINK TWICE before running this command.
