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.
Restart System?
Implementing this procedure initiates the sequential removal of controller
power. This ensures no data is lost. The reasons for implementing this proced-
ure include replacing a drive enclosure.
Power off system?
Implementing this procedure will cause the loss of all data. For a detailed
discussion of this procedure, see
Uninitializing the System
.
Uninitialize?
Shutting the controller down
Use the following procedure to access the
Shutdown System
display and execute a shutdown procedure.
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.
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.
