Proper way to restart the server

Hi!

 

May we know what is the proper way to restart the server where the HP Storage is connected through fiber? Should the all files and users' sessions be closed before restarting the server and can it cause any problem with storage if we restart the windows normally without closing the users' sessions?

 

Thanks.

Re: Proper way to restart the server

What OS version are you using?

 

Depending on the application, aborting processes may leave files in corrupted state.

You would expect databases to be immune to this.

Only users files. Storage is connected to windows 2008 R2 by iscsi initiator.

Thanks.
