Stopping a Failover Package
Note:
The file system services, NFS, and CIFS are temporarily stopped; the volumes
within the failover package are unmounted; and NFS and CIFS are restarted. Once
the failover package has been stopped, it can be restarted on any active server in
the cluster. After a failover package is stopped, the volumes within the failover
package are no longer available to client systems until the failover package is
restarted. Stopping a failover package does not affect the server's cluster status
and does not cause the cluster to go down.
To stop a failover package:
1. In Command View NAS, click the Storage tab.
2. Under Failover Packages, select the failover package you want to stop by
3. Select Actions > Stop Selected Package.
Applies to high-availability NAS solutions only.
Caution:
Check the Client Activity page before stopping the failover package
to make sure no one is accessing it. Stopping a failover package disrupts
service to users who are accessing the failover package(s) through the virtual
IP address. After you restart the failover package, the virtual IP address is valid
again.
