Power Switch
The power switch is located to the left of power supply module 1 on the rear of the chassis. It is a toggle
switch that controls power to the system. If the power switch is in standby position, only the 3.3V
standby power is enabled from the power supply module and the 12V main power is OFF. When the
switch is in the ON position, the 12V main power is turned on and the system boots.
Before you move the power switch to the OFF position, use the shutdown commands so that the system
can perform a graceful shutdown. This may take several minutes to complete. After the graceful shutdown
is completed, the front panel power LED is unlit and the console displays Power Down.
The shutdown commands are first available in Firepower eXtensible Operating
System (FXOS) version 2.0.1. See the FXOS Configuration Guide for more
information on using these commands.
Note
If you move the power switch to the OFF position before the shutdown
command sequence has completed or if you remove the system power cords
before the graceful shutdown is complete, disk corruption can occur.
