→
powering off storage
unit controller enclosures (pressing the power button on the rear panel of each storage unit
controller enclosure and holding it for five seconds)
→
powering off storage unit disk enclosures
(disconnecting from the power supply)
→
powering off Fibre Channel switches (disconnecting
