The node powers down. The power-down process can take from 60 to 120 seconds to complete.

Do not power the node back on after it shuts down; doing so reenables the NVRAM batteries. If you power
the node back on, you must repeat this entire procedure, including disabling the NVRAM batteries, before
disconnecting the node and returning it to Avere Systems.

8.

Disconnect all power and network connections from the FXT Series node, and remove it from its rack.

9.

Return the node to Avere Systems as directed by your Avere Systems representative.
