Getting Started
Switching off the server
Switching off the server
The method for switching off the server varies depending on the
operating system used. Check the operating system and switch the
server off using the normal method or use the automatic shutdown
function.
Every time the server is to be switched off, use only one of the
methods mentioned above. Using both methods simultaneously,
will cause the server to fail during its normal shutdown operation.
Normal shutdown
If no automatic shutdown function is installed in the operating sys-
tem, switch the server off by using the normal shutdown procedure
as follows:
1 Prepare the server system for switching it off by the normal
method.
Method to shut down the operating system
See "User's Manual for the Operating System."
2 Press the power/sleep button.
Using the automatic shutdown function
The automatic shutdown function is only available when the
server runs under the Windows NT or Windows 2000 operating
system. If the power/sleep button is pressed and held for more than
4 seconds on another operating system, the server is immediately
switched off without the preliminary process necessary for shut-
down. In this case the exclusive automatic shutdown software is
not installed in the Windows NT or Windows 2000 operating sys-
tem, no automatic shutdown operation is executed and the server
is switched off without the preliminary process as the power/sleep
button is pressed.
When the automatic shutdown function is not used, be sure to exe-
cute the preliminary process required for quitting the operating
system before pressing the power/sleep button.
