Stopping a virtual machine

Last published : Jun 19, 2026
In the Management Server console, you can stop the virtual machine (VM) by stopping the service group that monitors the virtual machine.
To perform this task, your user group must be assigned the Admin role on the service group or the Availability perspective. The permission on the service group may be explicitly assigned or inherited from a parent Organization or cluster.

  1. In the Management Server console, go to the Availability perspective and selectManage in the left pane.
  2. Expand the Organization or Uncategorized Clusters to locate the cluster.
  3. Select the required cluster in the navigation tree and select the VSystems tab.
  4. Right-click on the required virtual machine and select Stop VM.
  5. In the Stop Virtual Machine panel, do the following:
    • Select the system to enable the service group on. Choose All Systems to enable the service group on all systems.
    • Click OK.
  6. In the Result panel, click OK.
