Figure 3-29: Shut Down Page
Warning: If you shut down the storage system, users will no longer be able to
access the shared folders on the storage system. If users have shared files
open, data might be lost. Be sure to have all users save their changes and
close any open files before you shut down the storage system.
Shutting down the storage system when a backup is occurring will not have any
adverse effect; the backup will resume automatically when the storage server is
powered on again. However, shutting down the storage system when a disk is
being recovered can potentially corrupt the user’s operating system, and the
user will have to recover the system disk using the recovery CD (or, if the
system disk was not protected, re-install the operating system).
To shut down the storage system using the Manager:
1. In the Administrator password text box, enter the password for logging in to the Manager.
2. Click “Shut Down”.
A message appears, indicating that the system is shutting down.
Once the storage system shuts down, if you refresh the browser window, it will be blank. If you
subsequently try to access the Manager, an error message will appear, since the storage
system will no longer be running.
