To put applications in an off-line state

Note: This will put all the nodes belonging to a particular application in an off-line state regardless of where the nodes are running. It will also prevent the grid from automatically restarting nodes even if they have been configured for that. The typical reason for doing this is that you intend to stop an application for maintenance but you want to allow application nodes to finish executing in a controlled manner.
  1. Navigate to the Topology View page in the Grid Management pages.
  2. At the bottom of the page, click on the application link for the application that should be put in an off-line state.
  3. Click the Set Offline link.
