Powering down the server for shipment or storage
Follow this procedure whenever a server is to be powered down and will be
left off for more than a day. If the system is being restarted or power-cycled,
this procedure is not required.
When the system is properly shut down, depending on the battery charge
level, the battery may last up to one year without being charged or
conditioned . See
NVRAM backup battery pack on page 36 for details.
Contact your representative for special instructions if servers or NVRAM
battery backup packs will be in storage for more than one year. Special
provisions are required for field or factory recharging and retesting of NVRAM
battery backup packs.
Procedure
1. From the NAS operating system (Bali) console, issue the command:
shutdown –-ship --powerdown
2. Wait until the console displays the message
Information: Server has
shut down
and the rear panel LEDs turn off.
Note: The PSUs continue to run, and the PSU LEDs stay on.
3. Power down the server by removing the power cables from the PSU
modules.
4. Wait 10-15 seconds, then check that the NVRAM Status LED on the rear
panel of the server is off.
• If the NVRAM status LED is off, the battery backup pack no longer
powers the NVRAM, so that the battery does not drain.
Note: Use this state for server storage or shipment.
• If the NVRAM status LED is on (either on steady or flashing), press
and hold the reset button for five seconds until the NVRAM Status LED
begins to flash rapidly. Release the reset button to disable the battery.
The NVRAM Status LED goes out.
Note: The NVRAM contents are lost. The battery is re-enabled
when power is restored to the server.
