Changing the Library’s State
You can take the physical library or any of its partitions online or offline.
Some library functions require that the physical library or partitions be in
an online or offline state. You also can shut down the physical library from
the library’s touch screen.
Shutting down the library only prepares it to be
powered off. You will use the shutdown procedure
in some circumstances to prepare the library for
remove and replace procedures. For more
information about shutting down the library, see
Shutting Down/Rebooting the Library on
page 316.
