    The order in which the servers are shut down is important and should be applied to single server topologies as well.
    To shut down the Primo servers:
    1. Enter the following command to stop the Primo Apache server:
      stop_apache
      If you are receiving Primo requests on HTTP port 80, log in as the root user and enter the following commands to stop the Apache server:
      apcb
      ./apachectl stop
      If the Apache server is not running, you will see and can ignore the following error message:
      ./apachectl stop: httpd (no pid file) not running
    2. Shut down the Back Office (BO) servers:
      1. Enter the following command to stop the BO:
        be_stop
      2. Repeat these steps for each BO in your Primo topology.
    3. Shut down the Front End (FE) servers, starting with the primary FE:
      1. Enter the following command to stop the FE:
        fe_stop
      2. Repeat these steps for each FE in your Primo topology.
    4. Shut down the Search Engine (SE) servers:
      1. Enter the following command to stop the SE:
        se_stop
      2. Repeat these steps for each SE in your Primo topology.
