stado service stop
Invocation
stado service stop [OPTIONS] <NAME>Purpose
Stop one managed unit, including a process the unit no longer owns. `retire` removes a service from management; this only stops it. The difference matters when a restart has previously spawned the program outside its own label: launchctl then disowns it, the stale process keeps the port, and every later restart dies on "address already in use" while the broken instance serves on.
