Wake-on-LAN / Wake-on-SAS to Power ON / OFF the System
QSAN’s Wake-on-SAS technology allows you to remotely power on/off all cascaded
XD5300
expansion enclosures by using QSAN proprietary SAS cables. You can power on the XS3200
SAN system remotely using the Wake-on-LAN feature. The XS3200 can work with any
available Wake-on-LAN freeware and shareware. Wake-on-SAS ensures that expansion
enclosures will not run idly, consuming electricity after the SAN storage system is shut
down for maintenance or other purposes. Wake-on-SAS can avoid unnecessary electricity
waste
by allowing your devices to be on only when it is necessary. A further advantage of
Wake-on-SAS is that when you turn on the SAN, the expansion enclosures will wake
automatically, so there is no need to worry about degrading a volume if you forget to turn
them on first.
The table below shows the available expansion cable, model name, and its description.
