Shutting Down the NAS System

You can shut down the NAS system at any time by tapping the power button, or you can shut it down through the NAS

Manager.

NOTE:

To shut down your system by pressing the power button, press but do not hold down the power button to

get a normal shutdown. For an emergency shutdown, hold down the power button for approximately 5 seconds. An

emergency shutdown causes any redundant dynamic volumes to regenerate when the system starts again.

Regenerating dynamic volumes can take several hours to complete.

To shut down, shut down and restart, or schedule a shut down of the NAS system from the NAS Manager, perform the

following steps:

1. Log in to the NAS Manager.

See "

Logging in to the NAS Manager

."

2. Click Maintenance.

3. Click Shutdown.

4. Click Shut Down, Restart, or Scheduled Shutdown.

5. If you select Scheduled Shutdown, specify when the shutdown should occur, and then click OK.

6. On the Confirmation page, click OK to confirm the action.

If you selected to restart the NAS system, the Restarting page displays. When the NAS Manager detects that the

NAS system has come back online, the NAS Manager automatically returns to the home page.

NOTE:

Do not refresh or perform any function in the NAS Manager until it comes back online. If you click

Refresh, the NAS Manager might not refresh automatically.

Managing Disks

The NAS Manager allows you to list available disks, rescan for a disk, and view disk properties.

NOTE:

You cannot hot swap hard drives on the PowerVault 715N NAS system. You must turn off the system before

removing or installing a hard drive. For information about removing and installing a hard drive, see "Installing Hard

Drives" in the Installation and Troubleshooting Guide.
