Shutting down the system software

The Business Communications Manager system requires a controlled shutdown to guarantee the integrity of the file system. Sometimes this may not be possible, for instance if a hard drive fails. However, as long as you have access to the Unified Manager, perform the following procedures before removing power from the system:

1Start a web browser on a computer with a LAN connection to the Business Communications Manager system.

2Enter the IP address of the Business Communications Manager system and the port number for Business Communications Manager Unified Manager (:6800).

For example: http://10.10.10.1:6800.

3Click the Configure button.

4Type your user name in the Login box. The default user name is supervisor.

5Type your password in the Password box. The default password is visor.

6Choose System.

7Click the Logoff menu and then click Shutdown.

8Click the Yes button.

9Wait until the Status changes to Complete! It is safe to turn off the system.

10Click the Done button.

11Quit the web browser.
