Shutting down the Unitrends system

Typically, it should not be necessary to shut down your Unitrends system unless you need to:

Reboot after installing an update
Power down a physical appliance to perform maintenance

You can shut down from the Administrator Interface (Unitrends Backup or Recovery Series), from the hypervisor (Unitrends Backup), or from the physical appliance itself. If it is necessary to shut down your system, Unitrends recommends shutting down from the Administrator Interface. Any jobs in progress when the system is shut down will fail. Scheduled jobs do not run while the system is shut down.
