I would like to suggest a simple page which may help to restart you server via ColdFusion.
We can use command line as following via CFEXECUTE tag.
In case of not having “shutdown.exe” in some systems, we can use also IIS to restart the server as following.
What you can do is put this code somewhere in the server with password protection (of course!) and running them if you need to restart the server.
