Powering On - HPE StoreOnce 6500 User Manual

Model

Powering on

To power on the appliance, you must use the StoreOnce CLI and/or power on buttons. You can shut down
or reboot the appliance using either the StoreOnce CLI or the StoreOnce Management GUI on the
Maintenance page. See Maintenance on page 187 for more information about using the StoreOnce GUI
for power off options.
IMPORTANT: It is best to failover a service set during the node power on or reboot sequence in
case of unexpected errors with the node.
NOTE: If network switches and storage enclosures have been powered off, power on those first (using
the power on switches).
After maintenance activities, both servers must be powered on at the same time so that the checks in the
code can complete before the file system starts.
