Stop/Start the Plex Services?

What is the telnet or SSH command to stop and start the Plex Media Server on TOS? I've looked all over and can't find one that even lists running services. I need to stop the service in order to delete the file mentioned in this article
https://forums.plex.tv/t/not-refreshing ... /500136/36, as I'm experiencing the problem of no posters showing up on a Reset.

Hi, please try the command line as below:
/etc/init.d/plex start
/etc/init.d/plex stop

Thanks for your response. I fixed things by going the nuclear route: uninstalled Plex app, restart TOS, SSH in as root and delete the Plex folder and all subdirs, restart TOS, install and configure Plex Server app, re-scan all the libraries. Things seem to be working OK now.
