Obtain the following information:
Address of the VMware vCenter server associated with the appliance
Associated vCenter server account credentials
About this task
Use the following procedure to reboot a PowerStore X model node:
Steps
1. Log in to the associated vCenter server.
2. Place the ESXi host for the node in Maintenance Mode.
This action powers off the PowerStore controller VM, and the VMware DRS starts to migrate any user VMs to the ESXi host of the
peer node.
3. Monitor and ensure that all VMs migrate over to the peer node.
NOTE:
If there are VMs that cannot migrate over to the peer node, you must manually shut them down.
4. Once all VMs are migrated over and node goes into Maintenance Mode, reboot the ESXi host using vCenter commands.
5. Monitor the vCenter server console to ensure that the ESXi host has rebooted, and then exit the ESXi host from Maintenance Mode.
The controller VM powers on automatically.
6. Monitor the vCenter server console to ensure that the ESXi host has returned to normal operation.
