Powering on and off

The following sections provide information on powering specific SAN Switch models on and off.

4/8 and 4/16 SAN Switch models

To power on:

1.Connect one end of the power cord to the AC inlet on the switch; connect the other end to a power source.

2.Set the AC power switch to I.

The switch runs POST each time it is powered on, reset, or rebooted. POST requires approximately three minutes.

To power off:

1.Set the AC power switch to O.

2.Remove the power cords from the power sources.

NOTE:

Removing all power from the switch triggers a system reset. All devices are returned to their initial state the next time the switch is powered on.

4/32, 4/32B and 4/64 SAN Switch models

Connect one or both power cords to the AC power inlets on the switch; connect the other end to a power source.

To power on, set both AC power switches to I. Power is supplied to the switch as soon as the first power supply is connected and powered on.

To power off, set both AC power switches to O and remove the AC power cord from the power source.

NOTE:

Removing all power from the switch triggers a system reset. All devices are returned to their initial states the next time the switch is powered on.
