  1. Go to the Settings icon > General Settings section > Shutdown Server.
  2. Select a shutdown option:
    • Restart Server. This option will shutdown NetMRI and then immediately restart it.
    • Power Down Server. Use this option for a planned power outage or to move NetMRI to another location.
    • Disable Collection, Then Power Down Server. Use this method when removing NetMRI from a network, possibly for further review of analysis information. This option will likely be used most frequently by consulting organizations who use NetMRI on a network for a few days, then take it back to their office to prepare a customer report.
    • Save Network Database and Force Re-Configuration On Server Startup. Use this method when NetMRI is being moved to a new network or to a different section of an existing network. A consultant could also use this mode when moving NetMRI between different sites. A campus or enterprise customer can use this mode when moving NetMRI to different logical sections of a single network. The next time NetMRI is booted, the setup wizard will run, allowing you to configure it for a new network or a previously existing network. If a previously existing network is selected during the startup process, the system loads the archived copy of the database for that network, allowing NetMRI to pick up where it left off or allowing you to analyze the old data.
  3. Click OK.

You can also shut down the server from the administrative shell. For more information, see Administrative Shell.
