How to Shutdown a Cisco UCS Central VM

We recently had to restart the Cisco UCS Central VM (ver. 1.5).  I couldn't find a way through the Web Management Portal/GUI, so a Shutdown was performed through the console.

1. As a precaution, create a VMware snapshot.
2. SSH into the Cisco UCS Central VM using the admin credentials.
3. Then, switch the context to local-mgmt:

4. Below are the options available within this context.  Note - shutdown and restart.

5. Enter the shutdown (or restart) option.  Enter yes to confirm.
