Switching off the server

The method for switching off power varies depending on the system used.

Check your system and use either the Automatic Shutdown function or the

methods. If you use both methods, power will not be switched off normally.

Use this method if the operating system does have not automatic shutdown
function installed:

1 Shut down the operating system in the normal way (see the specific

operating system manual for details).

2 Press the power on/off switch until the buzzer has changed to continuous

sound.

If you release the power on/off switch before the buzzer has changed to
continuous sound, the exit process is interrupted and power remains on.

systems will be switched off as soon as the power on/off switch is turned off. If
the special software is not installed in a Windows NT system, the Automatic
Shutdown function will not operate. When you are not using the Automatic
Shutdown function, be sure to terminate system operation before turning off the
