Before you shut down the system or perform any maintenance procedures, read the following 
warnings to ensure you and your system are properly protected.  

How you shut down your system depends on the version of BCM system you are running. Use one 
of the following procedures to shutdown your BCM system in preparation for installing the 
R2MFC MBM.

Shutting down a BCM 4.0 system is a two step process. First you must shut down the system 
software, then you must shut down the system hardware.

1 If you are adding or replacing an R2MFC MBM in an active system, perform the following 

steps:

a Access Element Manager.

b Select Administrations > Utilities > Reset > Shutdown System.

This action will stop all services. All Element Manager sessions will be disconnected from 
the system. The BCM system can be restored to service only by powering the BCM 
system off and back on again.

Warning: If you are installing a new BCM or an expansion unit, refer to the 
Installation and Maintenance guide for the host system for instructions about installing 
a new system before you connect the system to the AC power outlet. 

Warning: Failure to follow procedures to properly disconnect the BCM and 
expansion unit can result in module or system damage.

Warning: Ensure you are properly grounded before handling modules or any 
components that are part of the BCM hardware.
