Figure 9.1 Flow of Maintenance for L-Platform Hardware
1.
Notify Users of Maintenance Operations
The infrastructure administrator managing hardware devices notifies the tenant administrator and the tenant users that manage or
use L-Platforms running on the hardware which is the target of maintenance (regular maintenance or patch application) that
maintenance operations will be implemented.
As one method of notification, Resource Orchestrator provides the function which shows the information by displaying
"Information" on the ROR console for tenant administrators or tenant users.
For details, refer to "3.2 Editing the Home Messages" in the "User's Guide for Infrastructure Administrators CE".

Stop Managed Servers
When using a physical L-Server, the tenant user must stop the managed server.

Change to Maintenance Status

When using physical L-Servers
The infrastructure administrator places the physical L-Server into maintenance mode.
For details on maintenance mode, refer to "Appendix C Maintenance Mode" in the "User's Guide for Infrastructure
