Drainstop/Graceful stop?

Hi,
Sorry if this is a but of a bumb question, but we’re moving from NLB to
using Nginx as a load balancer. Whats the best way to do an equivelient
of a
drain-stop to one upstram server? Would it be a graceful stop, then a
quick
service restart with a new .conf that don’t have the server in question
in
it, or is there a nicer way of doing it?
