What is the Symantec recommended order for stopping Symantec DLP services on a Windows Enforce server?

• A. Vontu Monitor Controller, Vontu Incident Persister, Vontu Manager, Vontu Notifier, Vontu Update
• B. Vontu Update, Vontu Notifier, Vontu Manager, Vontu Incident Persister, Vontu Monitor Controller
• C. Vontu Manager, Vontu Notifier, Vontu Update, Vontu Monitor Controller, Vontu Incident Persister
• D. Vontu Notifier, Vontu Update, Vontu Monitor Controller, Vontu Manager, Vontu Incident Persister

Answer: (A)

This question tests how to shut down Symantec DLP services in a safe, graceful order that preserves data integrity and system stability. Start by stopping the Monitor Controller because it’s the front end that directs data processing; halting it first prevents any new events from being consumed. Next, stop the Incident Persister to ensure any in-flight incidents are fully written to the database before the rest of the system winds down. Then shut down the Manager, which coordinates the overall DLP operations, so the core processing isn’t left mid-work. After that, stop the Notifier so no alerts are sent while the system is closing. Finally, stop the Update service last to avoid applying changes during shutdown and to keep the system in a clean, quiescent state for restart or maintenance. Other sequences risk new data entering during shutdown, losing or not persisting in-flight work, or attempting updates while components are already winding down.
