Stopping a Virtual Computing Environment

To stop your active Virtual Computing Environment, switch back to the OpenComputing Lab tab or window, which will look like Fig. 8

Click on the Stop the VCE button to start the process of stopping the VCE. While the VCE is being stopped, you will see the progress progress dialog in Fig. 9.
