=== Stop {ilm} API
[subs="attributes"]

<titleabbrev>Stop {ilm}</titleabbrev>
++++
Stop the {ilm} ({ilm-init}) plugin.
==== Request
`POST /_ilm/stop`
==== Description
Halts all lifecycle management operations and stops the {ilm-init} plugin. This
is useful when you are performing maintenance on the cluster and need to prevent
{ilm-init} from performing any actions on your indices.
The API returns as soon as the stop request has been acknowledged, but the
plugin might continue to run until in-progress operations complete and the plugin
can be safely stopped. Use the <<ilm-get-status, Get ILM Status>> API to see
if {ilm-init} is running.
==== Request Parameters
include::{docdir}/rest-api/common-parms.asciidoc[tag=timeoutparms]
==== Authorization
You must have the `manage_ilm` cluster privilege to use this API.
For more information, see <<security-privileges>>.
==== Examples
The following example stops the ILM plugin.
