The Published Interfaces Layer is deployed to a JBoss Server instance and thus stops when the server instance service is killed. To stop the service, use the following command:

sudo systemctl stop eap7-standalone

Monitoring Status

To check the status of the JBoss service, use the following command:

sudo systemctl status eap7-standalone

Check the log file for any errors – sometimes the process is still running but not functioning.
