How does one restart the Roon Core in a controlled manner

Core Machine (Operating system/System info/Roon build number)

Linux deb 4.19.0-12-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.152-1 (2020-10-18) x86_64 GNU/Linux

How to restart core which has crashed/stop working after 1.8 was installed.

Tried to restart processes after RAAT devices stopped appearing as targets even though they are visible in settings.
Killed processes (using kill -15 /SIGTERM ) and then tried to start using /opt/RoonServer/start.sh - but that failed. I think because it does not do a lock file cleanup when handling a SIGTERM.

I would like to restart roon services without having to reboot the server which runs other services.

sudo systemctl restart roonserver.service

Thanks for that - I had tried searching for a “roon” service but did not think of just doing a grep of all the services.
Cheers
