My plant is having a shutdown next week. I’m wondering if there’s a special procedure or order for shutting down Ignition Servers (master and redundant), and if there’s something else I’d need to have in consideration for the shutdown. The same concern would be for the power back up of the system. Thank you.

There isn’t any special procedure or order. Attaching starting/stopping gateway instructions for reference:
