7.1.1 Turning-On and -Off Your System and Storage Enclosures
The order in which you turn-on and -off your system and storage enclosures
effects the operation of your RAID Array 200 Series Subsystem. If the RAID
controller can not access the drives in your storage enclosures, it marks the
drives as failed. Therefore to avoid the controller trying to access the drives with
the storage enclosure turned off, power-on and off your system and storage
enclosures in the following order:
Power-on
1. Storage enclosures first
2. System second
Power-off
1. System first
2. Storage enclosures second
