4.4 Power Down Settings

The RamSan has features that allow the administrator to safely power
down the system.
4.4.1 Manual shutdown
The administrator can shut down the RamSan manually from the
front panel and via Text Management Interface. This procedure
safely synchronizes all data in RAM to the internal hard disk drive.
In order to turn the RamSan back on after a manual shutdown,
press the "Power" button to the right of the power supply. For
additional details, see Section 2.7 – Turning on the System.
Important:
Texas Memory Systems recommends backing-up the contents of
the RamSan to your server or another storage device as a fail-safe
before performing a Manual Shutdown.
Via Front Panel Display
To shut down the system
using the front panel, use the
arrow buttons to cycle
through the top-level menu
to select "Manual
Shutdown." Use the
"Select" button to select this
menu item.
The display prompts you to
confirm that you wish to
"Power Off System." To
cancel the shutdown, use the
"↑" button to return to the
main menu. To proceed with
the shutdown, use the "↓"
button to confirm the system
power off.
