Power Off Procedure
System is ready. You can now start to configure the
subsystem.
4.4 Power Off Procedure
If you wish to power down the EonStor subsystem, please follow these steps:
NOTE:
If you wish to power down the EonStor subsystem, please ensure that no
time-consuming processes, like a “logical drive parity” check or a
“background scrub,” are running.
1.
Stop IO access to the system
Use the software that is provided on the host computer to stop all IO accesses to the
EonStor subsystem. Please refer to the user manual that came with your host
computer.
2.
Disconnect the host
The host must be disconnected from the subsystem. To do this, disconnect the
cables from both the host and the EonStor subsystem.
3.
Flush the cache
Use the “Shutdown Controller” function to flush all cached data. This prepares the
RAID subsystem to be powered down.
4.
Turn off the power
Turn off the power switches at the top of the rear panel of the EonStor RAID
subsystem. Once the RAID subsystem has been powered down, other devices that
are connected to the subsystem may be powered down.
