Start and Stop of Components
To start or stop a component with ESMPRO Manager, use the [Maintenance] tree of the component in the [ft] tree of the
data viewer. Open the tree of the component to be started or stopped and select the [Maintenance] tree.
To start or stop a component with the Server Maintenance Utility, use the utility screen of the component.
The table below shows the potential cases in which a component is to be started or stopped.

IMPORTANT:
IO modules, SCSI adapters, SCSI buses, and modules under the SCSI enclosure have impact on each other. You need
to be aware of this, for example, when you replace a CPU/IO module. For details, see “Impact of Module Status
Changes” described earlier in this chapter.
When starting modules, ensure to start IO modules first and then CPU modules. To start IO modules when CPU
modules are running and IO modules are stopped, the CPU modules must be stopped before starting IO modules.
CHECK:
Even if a CPU module or IO module stop request is sent, the module will not be stopped if the system would be
unable to continue running.The same happens when the FT STATUS LED is off.
For example, the module is not stopped when the CPU/IO modules are successfully duplicated, but the link cable of a
teamed LAN is connected to only one side of the modulesn, or when a storage device connected by FC is connected
to only one side of the modules.
If the module is not stopped when you attempt to do so, see the event log to check the status.
