Power off and on RecoverPoint

Anyone know how to Power off and on a RecoverPoint? I need to move it and need step by step procedures.  I have a VNX5700 connected to a VPLEX local connected to RecoverPoint.

This was helpful but what does a full sweep mean?  I do not want to lose any data.  Theres about 25TB of data and do you know how much downtime will be required to do this?

If you adhere to the following steps you will avoid a full sweep. If avoiding a full sweep is not a priority then disable and enable the CGs.

1. Stop the host I/O (shutdown hosts).

2. Pause the CGs.

3. Shutdown the RPAs.

4. Shutdown the array (VPLEX, VNX).

In reverse after the redundancy test:

1. Power on the array (VNX, VPLEX).

2. Power on the RPAs.

3. Resume the CGs.

4. Start-up/power on the hosts.

I should have stated full sync. This relates to replication only and is a full reinitialization of replication. Journal history is lost if this is what you mean by losing data.
