Re: MSA 20 Shutdown Procedure

Hello,

- shutdown the Server
- power-off the MSA20

Otherwise you could get data loss, if you power-off the MSA20 without shutdown the server. If no application is accessing a logical drive, which lies on the MSA20, you could remove the drive letter in the disk management, and power-off the MSA20 after that. That should be safe too.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Patrick
