Bring resource group offline

Use this task to bring a resource group offline and stop all resources managed by the resource group currently online on the node. The resource group is not moved to a different node.

If you need to apply maintenance or service an application, or other resources managed by a resource group, you need to bring the resource group offline. Bringing the resource group offline prevents an unintended fallover during the course of the maintenance (for example, the resource group might come online on another node).

Fields

Node on which to bring the resource group offline
Select the node from a list of nodes on which you want to bring the resource group offline. The choice of nodes is shown only if the list of participating nodes has two or more nodes. If only one node is in the participating nodes list, then a confirmation message is displayed stating that resource group will be brought offline on that node.
