Step 2: Shut Down Running Software

Before copying the source Oracle Grid Infrastructure home, shut down all of the services, databases, listeners, applications, Oracle Clusterware, and Oracle ASM instances that run on the node. Oracle recommends that you use the Server Control (SRVCTL) utility to first shut down the databases, and then the Oracle Clusterware Control (CRSCTL) utility to shut down the rest of the components.
