I need to stop I/O on a FAS2020 during a maintenance window.

How do I do that?

stop the protocols in use is one way... cifs terminate, nfs off, fcp stop, iscsi stop... then cifs restart, nfs on, fcp start, iscsi start when done... but only the protocols you need to shut down... you could also disable network ports except for the management port... or even halt the system and boot from the bmc when done.
