Shutting Down or Restarting a Host
To shut down or to restart a host, follow these steps:
Click the Hosts icon on the left tree menu.
Click the name of the host you want to shut down or restart, either on the tree menu or the summary page.
Click the Status tab at the top right.
Click the Shutdown or the Restart button as appropriate.
Click OK to confirm to confirm the shutdown or restart operation.
If you have forest failover enabled for any of the host forests, you will see a Immediately fail over forests to replica hosts option. Check the box to fail over the forests to replica hosts.
Note
The restart operation normally completes within a few seconds. It is possible, however, for it to take longer under some conditions (for example, if the Security database needs to run recovery or if the connectivity between hosts in a cluster is slow). If it takes longer than a few seconds for MarkLogic Server to restart, than the Admin Interface might return a 503: Service Unavailable message. If you encounter this situation, wait several seconds and then reload the Admin Interface.
