How to stop a clustered instance of SQL Server (Service Manager)

To stop a clustered instance of SQL Server

  1. Type the name of the virtual Microsoft® SQL Server™ in the Server box. If it is a default instance, you only need to specify the virtual server name. If it is a named instance, you must enter VIRTUALSERVER\Instance.

  2. In the Services box, click SQL Server.

  3. Click Stop. This pauses the cluster resource, and then stops the SQL Server service, which does not cause a failover of SQL Server.
