After RMS is shut down, the background of RMS graph windows become dark gray on the node from which they are getting their information. In this condition, all the states are white, indicating that the states are unknown. Once the node on which RMS is activated is connected, the GUI starts to display the information again.
For example, suppose RMS is shut down only on one node (shasta1) of our example cluster. The graph on that node and the corresponding column of the clusterwide table will be shared with a dark gray background.

However, as long as RMS continues to run on the remaining node, shasta2, the RMS main view, the shasta2RMS graph, and the shasta2 column in the clusterwide table will indicate the online objects.
Application and subapplication graphs
When a node shuts down, any application or subapplication graph on that node would also change to the shutdown state.

The graph retains this appearance until the node restarts with the same configuration, at which point it returns to its normal display.
If the node restarts with a different configuration, the graph contents are deleted, because the object(s) no longer exist in the new configuration. However, the empty graph window remains opens until explicitly closed.
