Uninitializing storage systems
See the HP P6000 Command View online help for detailed procedures related to managing your
storage environment.
CAUTION:
If you uninitialize a storage system, you will lose all virtual disks, associated data,
and host presentations that you created for the storage system.
Uninitializing a storage system is not a common procedure. Uninitialize a storage system only if
you want to clear all data for that storage system. See the online help for instructions.
Starting the storage system
The procedure for starting a storage system varies by array storage system. For information on
how to start a storage system, see the user guide for your storage system.
Shutting down the storage system
CAUTION:
Ensure that any active commands, layered applications (for example, HP Storage
System Scripting Utility, HP P6000 Continuous Access, HP P6000 Business Copy, or HP P6000
Replication Solutions Manager) or functions have completed before you begin this procedure.
Shutting down a storage system makes application data unavailable to host applications. Shutting
down one storage system controller affects the performance of any presented virtual disks.
To shut down the storage system (both array-based and server-based management):
1.
From Storage System point of view, array Properties page, click System Options.
2.
Under Service, click Shut down system.
The Shutdown Options window opens.
3.
Under System Shutdown, select Power OFF. To delay the shutdown, enter a value in the
Shutdown delay box to set a time delay (in minutes).
The controllers perform an orderly shutdown and then power-off. The disk controllers then
power-off.
4.
Wait for the shutdown to finish, and then turn off the power.
For the location of the power switch, see
