pw cluster stop

pw cluster stop

Stop a cloud cluster's controller, or disconnect an existing cluster

Synopsis

The pw cluster stop command stops a cloud cluster's controller, keeping its disks so pw cluster start can resume it later. Compute nodes must have drained first; the platform refuses to stop a controller with active nodes. For an existing cluster it disconnects the platform from the cluster.

To tear a cloud cluster's resources down entirely, use pw cluster destroy.

On a terminal the command opens the live view until the cluster has stopped. Pass -o text to return as soon as the request is accepted, or --wait to block and print one line per step instead.

pw cluster stop <cluster> [flags]

Examples

  pw cluster stop my-hpc
  
  # Stop a cluster from a script, blocking until it has stopped

  # Disconnect an existing cluster
  pw cluster stop pw://Jake.Thayne/onprem
