To shut down an IOP:
Step Action Notes
1 Follow the instructions in the procedure
Shutting Down the Server on page 214.
Do this only if you are willing to remove the server
from service. If you do not want to remove the
server from service, continue with the next step.
2 Use Endurance Manager to ensure the
following:
• That the IOP you want to shut down is
not marked as the source of a mirror
copy.
• That the other IOP is active.
• That the other IOP has public network
connectivity (IOPx.Ethernet cable is
online).
If possible, perform any necessary backups for non-
mirrored devices on the IOP that you want to shut
down.
3 From Endurance Manager, issue the
command IOPx Disable.
4 From the local IOP:
• Make sure that the keyboard and mouse
are controlling the IOP’s operating
system.
• Issue a Windows NT Shutdown without
Restart.
If necessary, enter the hotkey sequence to switch
control to the IOP’s operating system.
5 When prompted, power off the IOP. Do this only when prompted.
