You will be prompted to confirm the action before RMS begins the operation. Stop all the resources which the specified resource depends on, and then stop the specified resource.

Figure 7.29 Confirming a resource stop

CLI: hvutil -f

The syntax for the CLI is as follows:

hvutil -f gResource

This is a normal offline request. There is no "forced" offline request for gResource.

Note

Stopping a resource is possible only when the application which controls the resource is Online.
If some resource becomes Online unexpectedly while the userApplication is partially Online, resource stop request is rejected on the node.
When a resource fails to be stopped, if the resource, which is not a target resource to be stopped, remains in the Online state, the application becomes the Inconsistent state. To restore this state, remove the cause of the unexpected stop of the resource, and then, use hvutil -f to stop userApplication. After that, start the resource if necessary.
