[Encountered Issue: Problem Phenomenon and Impact]
After using tiup stop to shut down the cluster, all servers were restarted for maintenance operations. Once the servers are up, TiDB is automatically brought up. However, the server startup times are not fixed. Is there a way to prevent TiDB from automatically starting and instead start it manually at the end?

If the machines start randomly, could the time intervals between different servers starting affect TiDB?

It’s okay. For example, if the KV server starts first, it won’t come up. Once the PD server starts, the KV server will retry and restart.

You can use NTP time service to synchronize the time across all servers to avoid cluster anomalies.

Besides disabling it, you can also log in to the physical machine of the TiDB server and use systemctl disable for that TiDB service.

There should be no impact. All PD nodes will start first, followed by TiKV, and only after all TiKV nodes are up will TiDB start to provide services externally.

The cluster startup operation will start all components of the entire TiDB cluster in the following order: PD → TiKV → Pump → TiDB → TiFlash → Drainer → TiCDC → Prometheus → Grafana → Alertmanager.
