July 14, 20223 yr This is maybe a very simple question but I didn't find the answer by myself. When the array has "started" status and that we want to do a clean shutdown of the server, will pressing the Shutdown button (under Main Tab) initiate stopping the array or not? I basically want to know if we can reduce the the number of steps by pressing 1 button (Shutdown) instead of 2 buttons (Stop and later Shutdown).
July 14, 20223 yr Solution Not a simple question. Short answer, yes, it's supposed to stop the array. Long answer, it may not stop the array cleanly if something is holding it up. If stopping then shutdown works quickly 100% of the time for you, then it should do a clean shutdown. I personally always stop the array first, because I want to monitor the entire process to make sure things are working properly. I've had many instances where something was keeping a file open that I would have to chase down and manually kill before the array would stop cleanly.
