stop cassandra server on mac os x

Question

How do I stop cassandra server running on a single node in my mac os x? Cassandra script doesn\'t have -stop option. Only way other than restart the mac os x, was to do a \"ps\

Answer 1

I'm using the new Datastax Enterprise 5.0 version, and it, at least, offers a simple enough command for stopping Cassandra:

dse cassandra-stop

It takes a few moments to shut down, but it works for me.
