Summary

Stop a specified Storage Virtual Machine (SVM) on a NetApp ONTAP cluster by setting its state to 'stopped'.

Inputs

  • Cluster Host (required) — Hostname or IP address of the ONTAP cluster management LIF.
  • Port — HTTPS port for the ONTAP REST API; defaults to 443.
  • SVM (required) — Identifier of the SVM to stop, selectable by UUID or name.
  • Options — Optional parameters including 'fields' to specify a comma-separated list of response fields to include.

Output shape

a single JSON object representing the SVM stop operation result, potentially including job status if the operation is asynchronous.

The output includes the updated SVM resource information after changing its state to 'stopped'. If the API returns a job object, the node polls for the job's completion before returning the result.

Examples

Example 1: Stopping an SVM by name

Provide the ONTAP cluster host and optional port, select resource 'SVM', operation 'Stop', and specify the SVM by name to stop it.
