Syntax

Stop-ClusterGroup
    [[-Name] <String>]
    [-IgnoreLocked]
    [-Wait <Int32>]
    [-InputObject <PSObject>]
    [-Cluster <String>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Stop-ClusterGroup cmdlet stops one or more clustered roles, also known as resource groups, on a failover cluster.

If maintenance on a clustered role is needed, the clustered role can be stopped in an orderly fashion by using this cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1: Stop a clustered role on the local cluster

PS C:\> Stop-ClusterGroup FileServer1
Name                       OwnerNode                            State 
----                       ---------                            ----- 
FileServer1                 node1                              Offline

This example stops the clustered role, or resource group, called FileServer1 on the local cluster.
