Shutting down a node

If you are shutting down the last SAN Volume Controller node in an I/O group, quiesce all I/O operations that are destined for this SAN Volume Controller node. Failure to do so can result in failed I/O operations being reported to your host operating systems.

This task assumes that you have already launched the SAN Volume Controller Console.

Do not disrupt the access of the hosts to their data when shutting down a node.

Follow MAP 5350 to shut down a node by using either the CLI or the SAN Volume Controller Console.
