Shutting Down and Restarting

Direct-Attached and SAN Configuration

The Shutdown/Restart option applies only to the NAS server. If you need to

shut down a direct-attached storage array, shut down the NAS server first.
Shut down the NAS server if you:

Move the device to a new location

Anticipate a power outage in your building and you do not have an

uninterruptible power supply for the device

Restart the NAS server if you install a new version of the Command View

NAS web interface.

Note

When restarting the NAS server in a direct-attached

configuration, it is not necessary to shut down or restart the

storage array.

When shutting down or restarting the server, keep in mind that:

You and any other connected users will lose the connection to the device.

The Command View NAS web interface in the current browser cache

becomes invalid. The browser closes and you must re-connect to the

system after it reboots.

To shut down or restart the device:

1

In the Command View NAS web interface, click the Configuration tab,

then navigate down the tree and select Shutdown/Restart.

2

Click Actions > Shutdown/Restart.

3

Select:

Shutdown if you want to shut down the NAS server completely.

Shutdown/Restart if you want to shut down and restart the NAS

server. If you have installed new firmware, the system will use it on

reboot. Wait approximately five minutes for the system to be restored.

Click OK.
