 The `server stop` command stops the named Open Liberty server.
 
-Normal server stop includes a quiesce stage before the server shuts down. This quiesce stage allows time for shutdown preparation, such as stopping inbound listeners but allowing existing requests to complete. The maximum length for the quiesce stage is 30 seconds. Applying the `--force` option to the stop command skips the quiesce stage. The `--force` option has no effect if server stop was already initiated. If you use the `--force` option, you might see unexpected exceptions in the `messages.log` file that occur after the server received the `server stop` command.
