Hyper-v cluster with core switch downtime... what to do?

$

Is there a way to essentially "pause" the hyper-v cluster and keep things running but do NOT attempt to failover anything for any reason?

We have one Procurve 5412zl switch with two c7000 enclosures. In each c7000 enclosure there are two switches that connect all the blade servers within the enclosure. Those two switches are interconnected internally so they can communicate within the enclosure.

So if the core switch goes down the hyper-v servers in the same c7000 enclosure can still communicate but they will be seperated from the others in the other enclosure.

So we have 4 hyper-v servers in one enclosure and 3 in another. If i disconnect the core switch i'm wondering what will happen (if I reboot the switch which is what I need to do).

How can I avoid having to shut down everything for this and just tell hyper-v cluster to not do anything when the network is lost?
