Use Group Manager
In the Group Manager GUI, select the appropriate member name, click the Maintenance tab, and click Shut
down.
Use telnet or a Serial Connection
1. Establish communications with the array. Either:
• Use telnet or SSH to connect to a functioning IP address assigned to a network interface on the array.
Do not connect to the group IP address.
or
• Use the serial cable shipped with the array to connect either serial port on the front of the array to a con-
sole or a computer running a terminal emulator.
Make sure the serial line uses these parameters:
• 9600 baud
• Eight data bits
• One stop bit
• No parity
• No flow control
2. Log in to an account with read/write access, such as the grpadmin account.
3. Execute the shutdown command:
login: grpadmin

• If you are using a network connection, the session will be disconnected before the array is fully shut
down.
• If you are using a serial connection to shut down an array, it is safe to partially or fully remove the array
in order to disconnect power when the “press any key” message is displayed. (Pressing any key will
restart both control modules.)
After performing array maintenance, you can restore power to the array.
When the array restart completes, the member and volumes will be set online.
