=== Synopsis

asadmin [asadmin-options] stop-domain [--help]

=== Description
The `stop-domain` subcommand stops the Domain Administration Server
(DAS) of the specified domain. If the domain directory is not specified,
the domain in the default domains directory is stopped. If there are two
or more domains in the domains directory, the domain-name operand must
be specified.
This subcommand is supported in local or remote mode. If you specify a
host name, the subcommand assumes you are operating in remote mode,
which means you must correctly authenticate to the remote server. In
local mode, you normally do not need to authenticate to the server as
long as you are running the subcommand as the same user who started the server.
