Powering Down the Server
Determine how you want to power down the server by reviewing the options in the
following table.
Note -
Some server components, such as storage drives, power supplies, fan modules,
and M.2 flash SSDs are hot-pluggable. Components that are hot-pluggable do not
require the server to be powered down when performing service procedures.

|
Power down the server gracefully to prevent data from being
corrupted. Performing a graceful shutdown ensures that the
system is ready for restart.
|
|
|
If the server is not responding, or you must shut down the
server quickly, perform an immediate shutdown.
