Power-Off Procedure
To prevent any data loss or corruption, the following process should be followed when an array is to be shut
down.
1. Turn off or disconnect application servers using the prescribed shut-
down process for that server’s
applications and operating system.
2. Turn off the array by depressing the power button located on the array controller at the rear of the base
unit.
3. Turn off the external BBU if used.
4. If the array needs to remain powered off for more than a few hours, partially eject both controllers from
the base unit at the same time and then reseat them, to prevent the internal battery backup from
draining.
