The mVault is powered off using the dual power switches on the rear of the system.

The system is designed for 24/7/365 operation and rarely requires shutdown. In order to shut down your

mVault, you should follow the procedures outlined for your mRAID or ActiveRAID system.

WARNING: DO NOT POWER DOWN THE mVAULT BEFORE POWERING DOWN THE RAID – THIS MAY

RESULT IN DATA LOSS!

Replacing a faulty hard disk module

Faulty hard disk modules can be removed with the system powered on or off.

If you are powering down the system, carefully follow the power off procedures before beginning this

procedure.

CAUTION: IF THE SYSTEM IS ON DURING HARD DISK MODULE REPLACEMENT, ENSURE THAT NO

I/O ACTIVITY IS GOING TO THE mVAULT.

1. Remove the 4 front rack mounting screws from the system (fig.1a). Press the release tabs

inward (fig.1b) while carefully sliding the system from the rack.

2. Continue sliding the system out until the top access panel clears the equipment rack, then

continue sliding very slowly until the rails lock into the service position.

2a).
