HP StoreOnce Backup - Manual (Page 174)

You will use the StoreOnce CLI command hardware update firmware to implement firmware
updates. See the HP StoreOnce CLI Reference Guide for more information on using the command
and the HP Maintenance and Service Guide for your product for more specific details regarding
firmware updates.
Using the 10Gb ports (HP StoreOnce 4900/4700/4500/44xx)
The default setting is for only the 1GbE ports to be configured; the 10GbE ports are not configured.
If required, the 10GbE ports must be added to the network configuration, see the HP StoreOnce
Installation and Configuration guide for more details.
Although a warning will be displayed, it is possible to disable network ports. You can only recover
this from the console screen by directly attaching a monitor and keyboard to the HP StoreOnce
Backup system.
If data transfer seems slow:
•
Check that the 10GbE ports are configured.
•
Also, make sure that the hosts are configured correctly to select the 10GbE network for data
transfer.
•
The LEDs on the 10GbE card (at the rear of the HP StoreOnce Backup system) also help identify
network activity. Or use iLO to monitor the network ports.
Power off and power on
There are no commands within the GUI to control the power on/off or reboot the appliance. All
the commands should be run from the StoreOnce CLI.
Powering on servers
Power on the server using the power on button on the front of the server to trigger a cold boot and
automatically power on.
The normal boot sequence can take up to 10 minutes. On power on the HP StoreOnce Backup
system runs its fans at high speed for approximately 10 seconds before returning to normal speed.
When powering off the HP StoreOnce Backup system make sure no backup or restore jobs are
running or scheduled to run while the HP StoreOnce Backup system is out of action.
Power off
Various commands exist to shutdown an appliance. Please use the correct command to perform
the task you require. More details can be found in the HP StoreOnce Backup system CLI Reference
Guide.
•
system shutdown : This gracefully shuts down the appliance by shutting down all services
before powering down the server. This means when you power back up, the deduplication
stores will start up from a clean state. The server will be in the off state, and will require
powering on via the power button or StoreOnce CLI.
•
hardware poweroff : This uses the iLO port to turn off the server, which does not allow
StoreOnce service sets to shutdown gracefully. This results in deduplication stores shutting
down in an unclean state and requiring integrity checking (an automatic process) on the next
power on.
