In this scenario, we can simply scale down the Artifactory HA cluster to a single working node, by stopping or shutting down the second node in the Artifactory HA cluster. This is one of the advantages of having the HA cluster setup, that we can scale down and scale up without any impact on the existing data. By doing so, the second Artifactory node will be offline and only a single node will be up and running. Then we can bring up the second Artifactory node, to work in HA mode anytime when it's required again. After we have brought down the secondary node, we can confirm that only a single node is running by accessing the JFrog UI and selecting Monitoring>Service Status.
