Shutting Down and Restarting

The Polycom DMA system’s Shutdown and Restart page lets you restart the system or turn it off completely. These commands affect both servers in a two-server cluster.

Both shutting down and restarting will terminate all existing calls and log out all current users.

Caution

Don’t turn off a Polycom DMA system server by simply unplugging it or otherwise removing power, especially if it’s going to remain off for some time. If a server loses power without being properly shut down, the RAID controller fails to shut down, eventually depleting its battery. If that happens, the server can’t be restarted without user input, requiring a keyboard and monitor.

To restart or shut down both servers

1Go to Maintenance > Shutdown and Restart.

2 Do one of the following:

—To restart the system, click Restart.

—To shut down the system (turn off both servers), click Shut Down. 3 When asked to confirm that you want to restart or shut down, click Yes.

The system logs you out and each server shuts down. If you chose Restart, the server(s) reboot, and conference service becomes available again when the restart is complete (typically, this takes about five minutes).

If you chose Shut Down, the server(s) remain powered off until you manually turn them back on.
