Ornn revokes SSH access, deletes every VM in the reservation together with its local disk, and releases its Bare Metal hosts. This cannot be undone, and a stopped reservation cannot be activated again. Export local data first; separate storage volumes keep their own lifecycle. For a Spot reservation this is the Stop VM action. A relisted reservation cannot stop while its relisted windows are live. A 202 response means the stop is accepted and Ornn is still releasing the machines; read the reservation until `endsAt` is set. In the console this is **Stop reservation**, or **Stop VM** for Spot. See [How spot ends](/guides/spot#how-spot-ends) for Spot credits. ## OpenAPI ````yaml openapi.yaml POST /commerce/reservations/{reservationId}/stop openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Ornn compute API version: 1.0.0 description: >- Customer HTTP API for Ornn GPU capacity. It covers reserved capacity and nodes, VM and Bare Metal access, Kubernetes and Slurm clusters, SSH keys, storage volumes and GitHub repositories, private networks, monitoring, buying and selling capacity (Reserve, Market, Spot, and Relist), and billing. API keys are scoped to one organization and act with their creator's access there; account, team, and API-key management stay in the console. Most operations require an approved organization. See https://docs.ornn.com/api-keys to create a key and https://docs.ornn.com/guides/kubernetes-api for an end-to-end Kubernetes integration. Examples use fictional IDs and credentials. The info.version field identifies the contract revision, not a shared API path version. contact: email: support@ornn.com servers: - url: https://api.ornn.com description: Production security: - OrnnApiKey: [] tags: - name: Authentication - name: Reservations - name: GPU nodes - name: Clusters - name: Workers - name: Virtual machines description: >- Choose a VM disk, launch VM access on a reservation, and read each VM's status, launch progress, and SSH connection details. - name: Bare Metal description: >- Launch Bare Metal access on a reservation, read a host's readiness and SSH connection details, and reboot or hard reset it. - name: SSH keys description: >- Register public keys for your organization, choose which keys a VM or Bare Metal reservation uses, and queue key delivery to machines.
