5.4.1.1

Disk Eject, Deactivation Request to Power-off Disk

This command produces the same response as pressing one of the disk eject buttons on the
RTM panel.

Upon completion of the OS removal preparations, the user may issue an IPMI raw command
and subsequently illuminate the disk FRU hot swap LED.

5.4.1.2

Approve Disk Eject Request

If the RTM is operating in slave mode (see

Typical Module Slave Extraction Mode (Normal), on

page 66

), the host must explicitly approve a disk eject request using this command.

Before ejecting a drive, the user should ensure the OS has released the drive, meaning it has
to be unused. This usually requires unmounting any file systems on it, and terminating any
raw partition use.
