To reboot an IOP:
Step Action Notes
1 Follow the instructions in the procedure
Rebooting the Endurance Server on
page 9-9.
Do this only if you are willing to remove the
Endurance server from service. If you do not
want to remove the Endurance server from
service, continue with the next step.
2 Use Endurance Manager to ensure the
following:
• That the IOP you want to reboot 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 reboot.
3 Reboot the IOP using either of the
following methods:
• From Endurance Manager, issue the
command IOPx Shutdown.
• From the local IOP:
a. Make sure that the keyboard and
mouse are controlling the IOP’s
operating system.
b. Shut down Windows.
If necessary, enter the hotkey sequence to
switch control to the IOP’s operating system.
Be sure not to have Windows restart after you
shut it down.
