To Power Off Using The On/Standby Switch

Note – Applications running on the Solaris operating environment can be adversely
affected by a poorly executed system shutdown. Make sure you have gracefully shut
down any applications before powering off the system.
1. Notify users that the system will be powered down.
2. Back up the system files and data, if necessary.
3. Sun Fire V240 only: ensure that the keyswitch is in the Normal or Diagnostics
position.
4. Press and release the On/Standby switch behind the front bezel.
The system begins an orderly software system shutdown.
Note – Pressing and releasing the On/Standby switch initiates an orderly software
shutdown. Pressing and holding the switch for four seconds causes an immediate
hardware shutdown. Whenever possible, initiate an orderly shutdown. Forcing an
immediate hardware shutdown can corrupt the disk drive and cause loss of data.
5. Wait for the front panel green LED to go out.
6. Sun Fire V240 only: remove the system key from the keyswitch and store it in the
clip on the back of the front bezel.
7. Close the front bezel.
