Linux haproxy: stop temporary haproxy service
Helllo experts,
I used haproxy for a linux load balancer.
The following command allows me to check the status of haproxy.
And the following allows me to restart the service.
I was wondering which command should I use to stop haproxy and make it unavailable for a certain time and then restart the service to make it available again.
Thank you again for your help.

Thank you for this proposal.
I tried the sudo service haproxy command however I don't have the information related to start/stop.

it is "stop" indeed if you just need to stop it
you can disable it using "systemctl disable service" ( beware the name of the service is weird so list services first with "systemctl list"
or you can use "chkconfig haproxy off"
agreed, whoever decided to name these commands in such a way or give them inconsistent switches deserves painful treatment

regarding your above screenshot, you need to use
"sudo service --help"
the above is the help of haproxy and you want the help of the service command
"sudo service --help"
the above is the help of haproxy and you want the help of the service command

please type in exactly what i posted and include what you type and receive in your screenshots or copy-paste.
there is no way you'd get the above screenshot ( help of haproxy ) with the command i gave which does not even contain the word haproxy

also note that haproxy features both a command protocol and a GUI that will let you disable individual frontends or backends if it is enabled
