Ungraceful Shutdown

Every now and then I’m sure you stumbled on to a Unity that throws the following error upon logging into it:

“Ungraceful Shutdown Detected - A rebuild of this node is highly recommended...”

This message occurs if the server (VM) is powered off without being first shutdown.

So here is how to disable that message. Unity versions 12.5.1SU6 and 14SU2 and higher have this CLI command by default. Anything older requires a .cop patch file that can be found at Cisco.com

Next time you login that error will be gone. See the Cisco TechNote for more details.

Always shutdown properly before powering off the VM!
