During this operation, infrastructure orchestration:

Validates the request

Checks that the servers to be powered off are in the state that is allowed to be stopped

After successfully completing a Change Lease Period operation, infrastructure orchestration modifies
the lease period for the infrastructure and updates the allocation of each resource for the new lease
period. If a resource is not available or an administrator rejects the request, the Change Lease
Period operation fails.

When a lease on an infrastructure service expires, infrastructure orchestration deactivates the
service. This action preserves all the logical servers in the service, and retains all resource allocations
