standalone tape drive or tape library, the “Devices” folder on the “Devices” tab will
refresh to allow for accessing and using the new device.
When this menu item is selected, a window will appear asking for confirmation before
bringing the miSAN-V-Series temporarily offline to scan for devices (See Figure 3-19).
Shut Down the HSTC
Use this item for safely shutting down or rebooting the miSAN-V-Series. Shutting
down the HSTC engine before powering off the unit helps insure the integrity of data
in the virtual tape cache.
Caution
Since multiple clients can access and view the control panel
simultaneously, users must not rescan for physical devices while other
users are connected. Doing so may interrupt current operations,
disconnect other clients or cause other browser control panels to
display incorrect information. If the miSAN-V-Series must be
reconfigured while other users may be accessing the control panel,
wait until all current and queued jobs have completed. To ensure no
jobs are left in the queue, wait a minimum of 30 seconds while all tape
drives are idle before rescanning for physical devices.

Caution
To prevent data loss before shutting down the miSAN-V-Series, make
sure all current and queued jobs have completed. To ensure no jobs are
left in the queue, wait a minimum of 30 seconds while all tape drives are
idle. Never power off the miSAN-V-series unit without first shutting
down the miSAN.
