Is this a new feature request?

Wanted change

To perform maintenance on the Plex database, I must stop the plexserver, yet I am unable to do this. I began with various attempts after entering the running container with sudo docker exec -it plex bash

systemctl stop plexmediaserver

supervisorctl stop plexmediaserver

pkill -f "Plex Media Server"
Operation not permitted

How may I do this? If I've misposted as a "Feature Request" please redirect me. I didn't think "bug" was the correct identification for my post. Thank you.

Reason for change

I need to perform maintenance on a bloated database.
