Shutting Down a Domain
To run administrative tasks on a domain, you might need to shut down the domain. For example, to back up and restore a domain configuration, you must first shut down the domain.
When you shut down a domain, the Service Manager on the master gateway node stops all application services and Informatica services in the domain. Any service processes running on nodes in the domain are aborted. To avoid possible loss of data or metadata and allow running processes to complete, you can shut down each node from the Administrator tool or from the operating system.
Before you shut down a domain, verify that all processes, including workflows, have completed and no users are logged in to repositories in the domain.
