Table 21 Shutdown methods LCD prompt Restart System? Power off system? Uninitialize? Description Implementing this procedure establishes communications between the storage system and HP Command View EVA. This procedure is used to restore the controller to an operational state where it can communicate with HP Command View EVA. Implementing this procedure initiates the sequential removal of controller power. This ensures no data is lost. The reasons for implementing this procedure include replacing a drive enclosure. Implementing this procedure will cause the loss of all data. For a detailed discussion of this procedure, see "Uninitializing the system" (page 55). Shutting the controller down Use the following procedure to access the Shutdown System display and execute a shutdown procedure. CAUTION: If you decide NOT to power off while working in the Power Off menu, Power Off System NO must be displayed before you press Esc. This reduces the risk of accidentally powering down. NOTE: HP Command View EVA is the preferred method for shutting down the controller. Shut down the controller from the OCP only if HP Command View EVA cannot communicate with the controller. Shutting down the controller from the OCP removes power from the controller on which the procedure is performed only. To restore power, toggle the controller's power. 1. Press three times to scroll to the Shutdown Options menu. 2. Press to display Restart. 3. Press to scroll to Power Off. 4. Press to select Power Off. 5. Power off system is displayed. Press Enter to power off the system. Restarting the system To restore the controller to an operational state, use the following procedure to restart the system. 1. Press three times to scroll to the Shutdown Options menu. 2. Press to select Restart. 3. Press to display Restart system?. 4. Press Enter to go to Startup. No user input is required.
