5 Operation and management Some operation and management tasks include: • Powering off and powering on the MSA • Updating MSA firmware • Updating SCSI hard drive firmware • Recovering corrupted MSA controller firmware • Recognizing and recovering from hard drive failures and faulted LUNs • Adding or migrating hard drives, enclosures, and arrays • Changing the management port IP address through the MSA1510i controller display panel Powering off and powering on the MSA NOTE: Restarting (power cycling) the MSA includes: • Powering off the MSA1510i • Powering on the MSA Powering off the MSA NOTE: System power to the MSA array does not completely shut off with the Power On/Standby button. The Standby position removes power from most of the electronics and components, but portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry remain active. To completely remove power from the system, disconnect all power cords from the device. IMPORTANT: It is critical to shut down the MSA array before the hard drive enclosures. This ensures that all hard drive I/O activity is ceased before powering off the hard drive enclosure. 1. Schedule a maintenance window. 2. Ensure that a known good backup is available. 3. Power down all servers with access to the MSA, or if your operating system fully supports it, quiesce all I/O, disconnect all connections, and dismount all LUNs. 4. On the MSA, press and hold down the Power On/Standby button on the front of the chassis for approximately five seconds to place the MSA array in Standby mode. 5. Verify that the Power On/Standby button LED is amber/off and that the fans are off. 6. Power off all attached hard drive enclosures. 7. Disconnect the power cords from the MSA. 1510i Modular Smart Array installation and user guide 77

5 Operation and management
Some operation and management tasks include:
Powering off and powering on the MSA
Updating MSA
rmware
Updating SCSI hard drive
rmware
Recovering corrupted MSA controller
rmware
Recognizing and recovering from hard drive failures and faulted LUNs
Adding or migrating hard drives, enclosures, and arrays
Changing the management port IP address through the MSA1510i controller display panel
Powering off and powering on the MSA
NOTE:
Restarting (power cycling) the MSA includes:
Powering off the MSA1510i
Powering on the MSA
Powering off the MSA
NOTE:
System power to the MSA array does not completely shut off with the Power On/Standby button. The
Standby position removes power from most of the electronics and components, but portions of the
power supply and some internal circuitry remain active. To completely remove power from the system,
disconnect all power cords from the device.
IMPORTANT:
It is critical to shut down the MSA array before the hard drive enclosures. This ensures that all hard drive
I/O activity is ceased before powering off the hard drive enclosure.
1.
Schedule a maintenance window.
2.
Ensure that a known good backup is available.
3.
Power down all servers with access to the MSA, or if your operating system fully supports it, quiesce
all I/O, disconnect all connections, and dismount all LUNs.
4.
On the MSA, press and hold down the Power On/Standby button on the front of the chassis for
approximately
ve seconds to place the MSA array in Standby mode.
5.
Verify that the Power On/Standby button LED is amber/off and that the fans are off.
6.
Power off all attached hard drive enclosures.
7.
Disconnect the power cords from the MSA.
