Shutdown
NOTE! This command requires a SCSI Reset or power cycle for the controller to become ready.
(Shutdown is a single command and has no menu items.)
Shutdown makes the array unavailable to the host. When a Shutdown is initiated, the array completes any
I/Os in progress, posts array information stored in controller NVRAM to disks in the array, then goes
offline. A Shutdown should be performed prior to the following procedures:
•
Powering off the disk array for more than a week;
•
Replacing the batteries in a controller module;
•
Moving all of the disk modules to a new array and retaining all data.
