Miguel, Kevin, Thank you for your comments.
The motivation of this (from our customer) is about design of network-node reduction procedure. They prefer stop scheduling for agents on the node at first then individual services are moved by *-remove and *-add gradually rather than stopping all services on the node at once. As Kevin mentioned, agents must be alive so that operations for existing services must be continued. Thanks.
