You can restart 3DM2 by restarting your Mac. However, you can also manage the 3DM2 Daemon manually by using the steps below.

1 | Check to see if the 3DM2 process is already running.

Open a Terminal window and type:
ps -ax | grep 3dm2 | grep -v grep
If 3DM2 is running, you will see it included on the output line that displays.

2 | Stop the 3DM2 process so you can restart the process

In a Terminal window and type:
sudo killall 3dm2
When prompted, enter your administrator password.
Wait for one minute or so before verifying that the process has been terminated. (It can take a couple of minutes for the process to be stopped)
Verify that the process has been terminated by typing:
ps -ax | grep 3dm2 | grep -v grep
The output line should not include 3DM2
If the process is still running, contact LSI/3ware Technical Support for assistance.

3 | Start the 3DM2 process manually

Open terminal window and type:
sudo /usr/sbin/3dm2
Enter your administrator password, when prompted for it.
