Shut Down and Power On the NSX Manager Cluster

If you need to shut down the NSX Manager cluster, use the following procedure.

Procedure

1. To shut down an NSX Manager cluster, shut down one manager node at a time. You can log in to the command-line interface (CLI) of a manager node as admin and run the command shutdown, or shut down the manager node VM from VMware vCenter.
   Make sure that the VM is powered off in VMware vCenter before proceeding to the next one. If only one manager node remains, it is no longer possible to login to the UI.
2. To power on an NSX Manager cluster, power on one manager node VM at a time in VMware vCenter.
