(Diagram borrowed from HP 3PAR StoreServ 70c Storage Service Guide)Ĥ Turn off the node PCM switches at the back of the disk shelvesģPAR will automatically turn its self back on when power is detected so you will just need turn the PCM switches back on. HARDWARE STEPSĢ Check the node Status LED is flashing green and the node hotplug LED is blueģ Turn off the node PCM switches at the back of the controller nodes. Then follow the hardware steps in the following section. No tasks can be running such as Adaptive Optimization. Shutting down this storage system will impact applications running on the hosts displayed aboveĭo you REALLY want to HALT this storage system? yes or no: Id Name Persona -WWN/iSCSI_Name- Port IP_addr You will See the following prompt -System Information. To begin the shutdown: 3PAR1% shutdownsys halt You will need to logon with a local admin account SPOCCġ Connect via web GUI to your Service Processorĥ Choose to shutdown the cluster, not the separate nodesĦ Wait about 5 minutes, then follow the hardware steps later in the post I would recommend using SPmaint, or SPOCC if possible. You can selectively disable the following types of Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) messages: Echo messages (ping messages) - The Layer 3 switch replies to IP pings from other IP devices. You have 3 methods to shutdown SPmaint, SPOCC or via CLI. Brocade devices are enabled to reply to ICMP echo messages and send ICMP Destination Unreachable messages by default. After issueing this command a power loss won’t damage the data (like LUN corruption, OS image corruption, cache dirty etc.).I recently did the power down of a datacentre containing a 3PAR and wanted to quickly cover off the steps that I followed to power off and then back on.įirst of all I did a health check to check for any issues such as a failed disk: 3PAR1% checkhealthĪll looked OK so I proceeded with the shutdown.
Shutdown brocade san switch software#
However this will not completely power down the system, it will unload all software from memory. The svc_shutdown command from the console (Putty) was the only way on those older machines. In the older versions of the VNXe operating system there was no CLI option to shutdown the unit. There is a Unisphere CLI user guide available on the EMC Support website. After installing this CLI you can execute the mentioned command to shutdown the VNXe. The Unisphere CLI (UEMCLI) should be downloaded from the EMC Support website and should be installed on your pc (Windows/Linux/Solaris/Unix).
Uemcli -d -u service -p /service/system shutdown Through Unisphere CLI using following command:.This will shut down the system completely and only the Power Supply’s ‘power LEDs’ will remain on. This option was introducted in the operating system version 2.2.0.
Through the Unisphere GUI: Settings > Service System > Select Shutdown and click “Execute Service” action.The best way is to do this from your desk! you don’t even have to get up and walk to the VNXe at all! There are two ways you can shutdown the VNXe. These SPSs used in CXs and VNXs do the work for you: when you turn the power switch on the SPSs or simply cut the power feed to these SPSs, the SPSs send out a signal to the Storage Processors, which will then flush the write cache to the vault after which the SPs will shut down nice and orderly. But knowing CX and VNX, this proved to be a challenge for me since the e model doesn’t have Standby Power Supplies. If you somehow need to get some work don on your power feeds to your data center and the VNXe needs to be shut down, you need to manually shut down the machine before starting the work on the power lines.
