For more information about the service scripts, see the PowerStore Service Scripts Guide.
● If both nodes in an appliance reboot in service mode, always return Node A to normal mode first to avoid management
software conflicts. After Node A is operating normally, you can return Node B to normal mode.
● Before powering down an appliance with metro volumes, ensure that the role of the metro volumes on the appliance are all
set to non-preferred. Refer to the Protecting Your Data guide for details about setting metro volume roles.
