How to shutdown Cassandra?

Hi,
 
Can someone please let me know how to shutdown Cassandra on Windows Environment?
 
stop-server is actually kiing the Cassandra Server and I was unable to create/get a pid file for the Cassandra process. Are there any setup steps that are needed that I am missing?
 
Thanks,
-Ram.

There is no "shutdown" command in cassandra, it's designed to be stopped by killing it. 


The pid file is created by the *nix scripts and is not supported by the cassandra.bat file for windows. 


There have been a couple of discussions on running cassandra as a service under windows...

Hope that helps.
