Shutting Down an IOP
Before you shut down an IOP, consider the following points. You may decide to shut down the
IOP at another time.
•
When an IOP is removed from service (powered off, disabled, faulted or booted in any
mode other than Operational Endurance I/O Processor Mode):
-
Any non-mirrored devices that physically reside on that IOP are not available to the
server.
-
The keyboard and mouse attached to that IOP are not available to the CE operating
system.
•
As an alternative to removing an IOP from service, consider scheduling an appropriate
maintenance time (the same day) when you can remove the server from service. Then, use
the procedure

to avoid remirroring all mirrored disk sets.
