Details

oamStopBoard stops the specified board, or all boards in parallel. Because this function can incur delay, it is an asynchronous call that returns immediately and is followed by an alert notification on completion.

Note: oamStopBoard stops boards regardless of any tasks they are currently performing. To avoid problems, make sure that a board is idle before stopping it.

For more information, see Starting, stopping, and testing boards.
