ReplV2 & NAS Shutdown

Celerra Gateway NAS 5.6 / Replication V2

(1) whether i need to stop replication for a nas gateway planned shutdown?
No, you do not need to stop replication V2 since it is common base checkpoints on both the source and destination.
(2) how to shut down celerra gateway?
if connected through serial
-step1- stop all nas services using respective celerra commands; then mount respective partitions.
-step2-then shutdown nas using server_cpu (if IP Replication configured otherwise use nas_halt). Before these DM's should be contacted each other and atleast one to be in "5".
**if not connected through serial - then follow only step2**
**use latest procedures in powerlink**
