Powering off servers in a cluster

If necessary, you can power off a server in the cluster in one of the following ways:

• End the session in the application menu.
• Power off the server over SSH or through the terminal.

To power off the server over SSH or through the terminal:

1. Sign in to the management console of the server that you want to power off over SSH or through a terminal.
2. Run the shutdown -h now command.

The server is powered off.

High availability of the application is not guaranteed when a server in the cluster is powered off.

The recommended interval between powering on a server and powering off another server is 6 hours.
