Stopping Vservers
You can stop a Vserver if you want to troubleshoot any issue with the Vserver, delete the Vserver, or stop data access from the Vserver. You cannot stop a Vserver during storage failover (SFO).
Before you begin 
All the clients connected to the Vserver must be disconnected.
Attention: If any clients are connected to a Vserver when you stop it, data loss might occur.
Steps 
1.
From the Home tab, double-click the appropriate storage system.
2.
Ensure that the left navigation pane displays the Vservers hierarchy.
3.
In the navigation pane, select the appropriate cluster.
4.
Select the Vserver that you want to start and click Stop.
Result 
The Vserver stops serving data to clients. A Vserver administrator cannot log in to the Vserver.
