Non-Forced Operations

There are four Non-Forced operation features that you can execute —

1. Activate — You use this feature to power on the virtual machine, operating system and then the SAP system.
2. Deactivation — You use this feature to gracefully shut down the SAP system and then the operating system.
3. Deactivate — You use this feature to gracefully shut down the SAP system, operating system, and then the virtual machine too.
4. Suspend — You use this feature to gracefully shutdown the SAP system, and then suspend the virtual machine.

To access these features, login to the LaMa web user interface and navigate to the Operations view and choose the Virtualization view.
