ware Restart process, files normally FTPed to the Server
are routed to a problem directory in the logging device.
When the Server is running again, these files are FTPed
to the Server.
• Shut Down the Server’s Hardware - The Shutdown
Hardware option should only be selected if the Server’s
hardware must be completely shut down—for example, if
the Server box will be physically relocated. When this
option is selected, the Server box shuts off, and files
normally FTPed to the Server will be routed to a problem
directory in the logging device. When the Server is
rebooted, these files will be FTPed to the Server.
• Restart the Server’s Software - The Restart Software
option should be selected if daemons fail to run and/or
the database needs to be started again. When this option
is selected, the MySQL database is rebooted.
• Shut Down the Server’s Software - The Shutdown
Software option should be selected if a software update
needs to be installed on the Server. When the Shutdown
Software option is selected, the MySQL database shuts
off and no files are FTPed to the Server.
