10.8.2 Stopping Manager on Windows

On Windows, you can stop Manager from the Services applet (if Manager is installed as a service). See the Windows documentation or your system administrator.

If Manager is not installed as a service, you can stop it with the STOP MANAGER command in GGSCI.

STOP MANAGER [!]

In a Windows cluster, you must take the Manager resource offline from the Cluster Administrator. If you attempt to stop Manager from the GGSCI interface, the cluster monitor interprets it as a resource failure and attempts to bring the resource online again. Multiple start requests through GGSCI eventually will exceed the start threshold of the Manager cluster resource, and the cluster monitor will mark the Manager resource as failed.
