In this blog, we will finally do a clean shutdown of our vRops Cluster.
At times it’s not possible to do a controlled shutdown but here is the write to cover the clean shut/start process of a vRops cluster.
Login via the admin mode and choose the option to take the cluster offline
Click Ok to continue
The vROps cluster will go offline shortly
After few moments, we can see our cluster has fully moved itself into an Offline state.
Once the cluster is offline, just power off all the VM’s from vCenter in this order. If you wish to start up, then its the reverse process.
