Stop a Data Store

If you do not want a data store to run, use the stop option. Stopping the data store ensures that no job is running on it.

Notes:

• If you stop a data store, all the jobs running, including the jobs waiting in queue, on that data store are canceled.
• If you stop a data store while a replication job is in progress, then on restarting the data store, the replication job starts from the same point at which you stopped the data store.
• If you stop the data store while a replication job (for example, Job-10) is in progress, and by that time two more backup jobs complete (for example, Job-11, Job-12), then when you restart the data store, the replication jobs complete in a sequence (Job-10, Job-11, Job-12, respectively).

Follow these steps:

1. From the Console, click the resources tab.
2. From the left pane, navigate to Destinations, and click Recovery Point Servers.

   The Destinations: Recovery Point Servers page displays the list of available recovery point servers.

3. Expand a recovery point server.

   You can see the list of data stores associated with the recovery point server.

4. Perform one of the following actions:
   • Right-click the data store name.
   • Select the data store, and from the center pane click the Actions drop-down list.
   • Select the data store, and from the right pane click the Actions drop-down list.

   A list of options is displayed.

5. Click Stop.

   The Confirm dialog opens.

6. Select Yes to stop.

   The right pane displays the information that the data store is stopping.

   The data store stops and the status icon for the selected data store changes from Running to Stopped.
