• Shut down and restart the current SM module: Gracefully shuts down and restarts the SM 

module you are currently accessing using the Disk Array Administrator software (as shown at the 
bottom of each screen). Use this option when you have changed a configuration that requires 
restarting (the procedures say when you need to do this) or when you need to replace the SM 
module. (See 

page 190

.)

• Shut down the other SM module: Gracefully shuts down the other SM module (the one you are 

not currently accessing using the Disk Array Administrator software). Use this option when you need 
to replace the other SM module or to perform maintenance. (See 

page 191

.)

• Shut down both SM modules: Gracefully shuts down both SM modules. Use this option when you 

need to power down the whole system for maintenance, repair, or a move. (See 

page 192

.)

You may need to shut down and restart a SM module after making certain configuration changes. The 
procedures say when you need to do this.

You should shut down a SM module before you remove it. This shut down is the same as unlocking the 
handles on the SM module hardware to remove it. Using the shutdown from the Disk Array Administrator 
lets you see any messages related to the shut down. You cannot see the messages when you unlock the 
hardware handles.

You should shut down both SM modules when you need to power down the whole system for 
maintenance, repair, or a move. For more information, see 

G.1.3, ”Shutting Down Both SM Modules”, on 

page 192

.

We strongly recommend that you shut down a SM module gracefully and do not just turn off the power. 
A normal shutdown ensures that the write-back cache has been flushed to the disk.

From the System Menu, select Shutdown Menu and press Enter 
The Shutdown Menu displays.
