Getting Started
Switching off the server
45
Logon by a user without shutdown rights
If an unauthorized user logs on, the automatic shutdown function
with the power/sleep button is disabled.
If the server enters into this mode, log on to the server as the sys-
tem administrator and then carry out the normal manual shutdown
operation and switch off the power. The automatic shutdown func-
tion recovers as the system is restarted.
You can avoid this difficulty by:
c Operating the power/sleep button after log-off operation.
c Prohibit “Guest” log-ons or let all users including “Guests”
have the right to shut down the server.
The application in operation
An application in operation is forcedly closed by the shutdown
operation with the power/sleep button. When shutting down the
server in this way, the data in use will not be saved after shutdown.
Load to the system
If the server is shut down by the power/sleep button operation
when the system is heavily loaded, the shutdown operation does
not start immediately after the power/sleep button is released. The
waiting time depends on the degree of system load. In normal cir-
cumstances this takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute to start the
shutdown operation. In this case, wait a while.
