Test the config httpd.conf after making changes:
/opt/IBMIHS/bin/apachectl -t
The -f option is useful. Without it, the apachectl assumes the configuration file is under
the ../conf folder:
Stop a particular server using a config file:
/opt/IBMIHS/bin/apachectl -f /httpd.conf stop
Start a particular server using a config file:
/opt/IBMIHS/bin/apachectl -f /httpd.conf start
