• Before turning the server on, check that the ETERNUS AF and the network devices that connect the
ETERNUS AF and the server are all in READY status.
If the server is turned on while any of these devices are not in READY status, the server may not be able
to recognize the ETERNUS AF.
• To turn on the ETERNUS AF by linking with the server, the server must wait until the ETERNUS AF is in
the READY state.
• If the Auto Power function is enabled via ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI, the ETERNUS AF is
automatically turned on when power is supplied to the ETERNUS AF.
• If the Power Resume function is enabled via ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI, the ETERNUS AF is
automatically turned on after the power is restored.
• If the REMOTE LED of the ETERNUS AF650 S3 is green, turn on the ETERNUS AF650 S3 via a power
synchronized unit.
• After power-off, wait for about one minute before turning power on again.
• If the ETERNUS AF turns off abnormally due to problems such as a power failure, it takes approximately
10 minutes (max.) longer for the ETERNUS AF150 S3/AF250 S3 or approximately 15 minutes (max.)
longer for the ETERNUS AF650 S3 to reach the READY state the next time the ETERNUS AF is turned on.
