Managed Clusters - Stop

Stops a Managed Cluster
This can only be performed on Azure Virtual Machine Scale set backed clusters. Stopping a cluster stops the control plane and agent nodes entirely, while maintaining all object and cluster state. A cluster does not accrue charges while it is stopped. See stopping a cluster for more details about stopping a cluster.
