Powering On
This section explains how to turn on the ETERNUS AF.
To turn on the ETERNUS AF, perform the following procedure.
•Via the power switch
Press the Power switch to turn on the ETERNUS AF.
The following methods can be used to turn the power on by linking with the server.
•Power Synchronized Unit
Use the power synchronized unit to turn on the ETERNUS AF.
•Wake On LAN
Use the Wake On LAN function to turn on the power.
Note
Before turning on the ETERNUS AF, make sure that the main line switches of the power distribution units
and the PSU switches on the power supply units of the ETERNUS AF are "ON". Do not turn the main line
switches of the power distribution units and the PSU switches on the ETERNUS AF to the OFF position.
IMPORTANT
•The following table shows the time required for the ETERNUS AF to reach the READY state (the READY
LED turns on) after turning the power on. This should be taken into consideration for scheduled
operations.
Table 1 Time Required to Turn the Power On
Model Deduplication/Compression function is disabled Deduplication/Compression function is enabled
Normal Error Normal Error
ETERNUS AF150 S3 Approx. 5 minutes Max. 18 minutes — —
ETERNUS AF250 S3 Approx. 5 minutes Max. 18 minutes Approx. 9 minutes Max. 22 minutes
ETERNUS AF650 S3 Approx. 7 minutes Max. 20 minutes Approx. 21 minutes Max. 34 minutes
•Before turning the server on, check that the ETERNUS AF and the network devices that connect the
ETERNUS AF and the server are all in READY status.
If the server is turned on while any of these devices are not in READY status, the server may not be able
to recognize the ETERNUS AF.
•To turn on the ETERNUS AF by linking with the server, the server must wait until the ETERNUS AF is in
the READY state.
•If the Auto Power function is enabled via ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI, the ETERNUS AF is
automatically turned on when power is supplied to the ETERNUS AF.
•If the Power Resume function is enabled via ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI, the ETERNUS AF is
automatically turned on after the power is restored.
•If the REMOTE LED of the ETERNUS AF650 S3 is green, turn on the ETERNUS AF650 S3 via a power
synchronized unit.
•After power-off, wait for about one minute before turning power on again.
•If the ETERNUS AF turns off abnormally due to problems such as a power failure, it takes approximately
10 minutes (max.) longer for the ETERNUS AF150 S3/AF250 S3 or approximately 15 minutes (max.)
longer for the ETERNUS AF650 S3 to reach the READY state the next time the ETERNUS AF is turned on.

•If the ETERNUS AF is not connected to a power source for long periods, it takes up to four hours before
the built-in battery is fully charged. If the ETERNUS AF is used before the battery is fully charged, the
operational state of the cache is changed to the Write Through mode and performance of the ETERNUS
AF degrades.
This section explains how to use the Power switch to turn on the ETERNUS AF.
For other procedures, refer to the related manuals.

Powering Off
This section explains how to turn off the ETERNUS AF.
To turn off the ETERNUS AF, perform one of the procedures below.
•Via the power switch
Press the Power switch to turn off the ETERNUS AF.
•Via ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI
Use ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI to turn off the ETERNUS AF.
The following methods can be used to turn off the power by linking with the server.
•Via the power synchronized unit
Use the power synchronized unit to turn off the ETERNUS AF.
IMPORTANT
•When the ETERNUS AF is turned off, the power shuts off after the data in the cache memory is written to
the drives. As a result, it may take the following time for the power supply to be completely turned off.
Table 2 Time Required to Turn the Power Off
Model Deduplication/Compression function is disabled Deduplication/Compression function is enabled
ETERNUS AF150 S3 Approx. 8 minutes (max. 10 minutes) —
ETERNUS AF250 S3 Approx. 8 minutes (max. 10 minutes) Approx. 12 minutes (max. 14 minutes)
ETERNUS AF650 S3 Approx. 10 minutes (max. 15 minutes) Approx. 25 minutes (max. 30 minutes)
•Do not turn off the power of the ETERNUS AF and the network devices that connect the ETERNUS AF to a
server while the server is operating. This may result in the loss of data or prevent data from being saved
in the ETERNUS AF.
•When using a power synchronized unit for power control, turn off the power of the ETERNUS AF via the
power synchronized unit. When a power synchronized unit is connected, the power of the ETERNUS AF is
automatically turned on because the power synchronization function is activated.
•If the REMOTE LED on the ETERNUS AF650 S3 is green, turn off the ETERNUS AF650 S3 by linking with
the server. Pressing the Power switch does not turn off the ETERNUS AF650 S3.
•To turn off the ETERNUS AF, use the Power switch, a power synchronized unit, ETERNUS Web GUI, or
ETERNUS CLI. If any other method is used to turn off the ETERNUS AF, the replacement cycle for the
battery is shortened significantly because the battery continues to charge and discharge.
•After power-off, wait for about one minute before turning power on again.
This section explains how to use the Power switch and the power synchronization unit to turn off the ETERNUS
AF.
For other procedures, refer to the related manuals.
