Reboot or Shut Down All Nodes (Cluster-Level) Through GUI

Cluster-level power operations allow you to reboot or shut down all nodes in the A10 Control cluster at once. However, it results in full downtime of the cluster until nodes are restarted.

Prerequisites:

• Inform stakeholders about the planned downtime.
• Verify that all nodes are in a healthy (green) state before initiating cluster-wide operations.
• Ensure you have access to the hypervisor interface to restart nodes after a shutdown.

• Ensure at least two nodes remain active in a three-node cluster to keep the GUI accessible.

Ensure that a minimum of two active nodes required in a three-node cluster to maintain quorum and keep cluster services available.

To reboot or shutdown all nodes:

1. Navigate to A10 Control > Power.
2. Click Refresh to ensure all the available nodes are listed.

3. To reboot all nodes, click Reboot All and confirm.

   All nodes go offline and restart automatically.

4. To shut down all nodes, click Shutdown All and confirm.

   All nodes power off. However, you must restart them manually from the hypervisor interface. For information, see Manually Power on VM.

The Power page displays the node’s uptime (time since last reboot) so you can confirm the operation was successful.
