Answer 1

Option 1: go to redis installation directory and navigate to src , in my case :

/opt/redis3/src/redis-cli -p 6379 shutdown

where 6379 is the default port.

Option 2: find redis process and kill

ps aux | grep redis-server

t6b3fg   22292  0.0  0.0 106360  1588 pts/0    S+   01:19   0:00 /bin/sh /sbin/service redis start
t6b3fg   22299  0.0  0.0  11340  1200 pts/0    S+   01:19   0:00 /bin/sh /etc/init.d/redis start

And Then initiate kill:

kill -9 22292

kill -9 22299

I'm using Centos 6.7 , x86_64

hope it helps
