I feel like `pureadm stop` is the most straightforward option, but I could see how `--controller CT0` might be necessary in some cases.

I’m a bit confused about the options. Does `pureadm stop --secondary` actually stop the secondary controller, or is it just for failover situations?

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think using `--controller CT0` might be the right choice if you want to specify which controller to stop.

I think the command to stop Purity is just `pureadm stop`, but I’m not entirely sure if it needs any additional flags.

I'm a bit confused here. Is there a difference between stopping Purity and stopping the controller? I'll need to review the documentation to be sure.

Purity, Schmurity. I say we just throw the whole thing out and start fresh. Who needs controllers when you've got duct tape and a dream?

Option B, all the way. Stopping the secondary controller is the only way to be sure you don't accidentally take down the whole system. Safety first, am I right?

I don't know, man. Stopping Purity sounds like a dangerous game. Might as well just let it run and see what happens. What's the worst that could happen?
