Usage guidelines

Stop an MDC with caution. Stopping an MDC interrupts all services on the MDC and logs out all login users on the MDC.

To avoid configuration loss, save the running configuration of an MDC before stopping the MDC.

Creating an MDC is the same as constructing a physical device. After creating an MDC, use this command to start the MDC to complete MDC initialization. After an MDC is started, administrators of the MDC can log in to the MDC for MDC configuration and maintenance.

Examples

# Start MDC sub1.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] mdc sub1
[Sysname-mdc-2-sub1] mdc start
It will take some time to start MDC...
MDC started successfully.
