Power Off the Library
There are two methods of powering off the library: controlled and forced.
- Controlled Power-Down from the Interface — Always recommended, if possible.
- Forced Power-Down — Cuts power at the library or rack. Use this method only when the controlled method does not work.
Controlled Power-Down from the Interface
Always use the remote interface to power down the library when possible.
Forced Power-Down
Use the forced power-down method only if the controlled power-down did not work.
- Stop any host activity.
- Remove power from the library using one of the following methods:
- Press the front panel power button and hold it until the library shuts down (approximately 10 seconds).
- Remove power from all power supplies (disconnect the power cord from all power supplies or set the PDU or power strip switch to the off position).
