Properly stopping the Asset Server?

Hi,

We have the asset server running on one of our editor machines. The docs instructs to stop the Asset Server before shutting down the machine to avoid a lengthy recovery. Does anyone know how to properly shut down the Asset Server?

In general, I find the documentation of the command line interface sorely lacking. Is there any source for further documentation?

Thanks in advance!

The documentation isn’t very clear, but apparently the Asset server is a modified PostgreSQL database, so the documentation on that works. It would have been good if Unity would have included at least some links to useful information such as stopping/starting the server, backing up etc.

There is a control panel thats installed with UAS. Check your installation folder / shortcuts for it and you can stop / start the server from there.

Yeah, this is kinda a massively undocumented section of Asset Server. Maybe it’s time to switch to Git
