File module power features:
When the file module is connected to a power source but is not turned on, the
operating system does not run, and all core logic except for the integrated
management module is shut down. However, the file module can respond to
requests from the integrated management module, such as a remote request to turn
on the file module. The power-on LED flashes to indicate that the file module is
connected to power but is not turned on. Refer to Power-supply LEDs in the IBM
Storwize V7000 Troubleshooting, Recovery, and Maintenance Guide PDF on the CD.
Powering on the file module
Approximately 3 minutes after the file module is connected to power, the
power-control button becomes active. Also, one or more fans might start running
to provide cooling while the file module is connected to power. You can turn on
the file module and start the operating system by pressing the power-control
button.
Turning off the file module
When you turn off the file module and leave it connected to power, the file
module can respond to requests from the integrated management module. For
example, it can respond to a remote request to turn on the file module. While the
file module remains connected to power, one or more fans might continue to run.
To remove all power from the file module, you must disconnect it from the power
source.
Important: To view the error LEDs on the system board, leave the file module
connected to a power source.
Some operating systems require an orderly shutdown before you turn off the file
module. See your operating-system documentation for information about shutting
down the operating system.
CAUTION:
The power control button on the device and the power switch on the power
supply do not turn off the electrical current supplied to the device. The device also
might have more than one power cord. To remove all electrical current from the
device, ensure that all power cords are disconnected from the power source.
Press the power-control button to start an orderly shutdown of the operating
system and turn off the file module, if your operating system supports this feature
Attention:
If you have a problem powering off the system, see the IBM Storwize
V7000 Troubleshooting, Recovery, and Maintenance Guide documentation CD for more
information about light path issues.
