Title: How to gracefully stop armoryd while it is scanning the blockchain?
Post by: jl2012 on March 31, 2015, 01:44:05 PM
I'm running armoryd.py in supernode mode (on Linux) but it is scanning very slowly. I want to add some RAM but can't do that without interrupting the scan. How could I stop it gracefully?

There is indeed no command for that. We'll add one. For now you can just SIGTERM armoryd, the DB is resilient to that.
