1. Stop the IO/stop all hosts first except the one on which the Command view EVAis running.

If this host is a dedicated SMA, then no LUNs are presented to it, soopen the Command View EVA application. If you dont have any dedicated SMA, stopits applications first but let the Command View EVA running. 2. Shut down via the Command View is HP preferred methodit does the following:a) flushes cacheb) removes power from the controllersc) disables cache battery powerd) remove power from the drive enclosurese) disconnects the system from the Command View EVA 3. The shutdown procedure:a) Launch the Command View EVA appb) In the Navigation Pane, click the Storage namec) Go to the Initialized Storage system propertiesd) Click the the POWER DOWN in a SYSTEM SHUTDOWN SECTIONe) Wait for the shutdown procedure finish and then turn off the circuit breakerson both of the EVA PDUs.f) Turn off the power switch on the rear of each HSV controllerg) if this is the only EVA shutdown the SMA/ EVA management hosth) switch of the SAN switchesi) switch of the LAN switchesPOWER ONi) switch on the LAN switchesj) switch on the SAN switchesk) switch on the SMA/EVA management hostl) Power on the circuit breakers on both EVAs PDUsm) wait 3 minutes and check if all drive enclosures disks are ready (LEDs)n) Power on the upper HSV controller. It will become the master controllero) Wait 10 seconds and power up the lower HSV controllerp) verify that the OCP panel is showing the EVAs name and WWNq) launch the Command View EVA. If the EVA is not visible, click the discoveryIf its still not visible restart the SMAr) via the Command View EVA check the array status to ensure that everything is operating properly.
