Taking a host offline and online

To take a host offline:

  1. Go to the Services page.
  2. Select a host from the network tree.
  3. Click Take Host Offline. This stops all services.
  4. Optional. To remove this host from the network, use the Network Design page.

Note: You must disable pop-up blockers.

To bring a host online, you cannot use the Management Station (because the watcher service initiates and maintains connectivity with the Management Station, and not the other way around). Instead, restart the host. If you don't want to reboot the host, start the watcher. See Starting and stopping the watcher service manually.
