If you need to shut down or restart an appliance, you should take care to do it properly to protect the data in memory and ensure it is written to disk. There are several ways to properly shut down or restart the ICS appliance.
Start the browser-based management tool.
Click System > Actions.
Shut the system down by clicking Shut Down or shut it down and restart it by clicking Restart.
You are given a chance to verify your selection.
If you choose to shut the system down, you hear a 3-beep sequence that repeats until the system is turned off or restarted.
If you choose to restart the system, you hear a 2-beep, 4-beep sequence that repeats for a short period and then stops, signifying that your ICS appliance has restarted.
If you do not have access to the physical location of the ICS appliance, you can test to see if the ICS device has restarted by pinging its address on port 1959. If the ping succeeds, the appliance has restarted.
From the command line you can shut an appliance down or restart it.
NOTE: Both actions break the connection. If you restart the appliance from a remote connection, you will be able to reconnect after the appliance restarts. If you shut down the appliance, however, someone will need physical access to the appliance to restart it.
To shut down the ICS appliance from the command line, enter
Shutdown
If you are near the ICS appliance, you will hear a continuous 3-beep sequence once the system is down. You can restart the system from an attached keyboard by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del, or you can shut off the power once you hear the 3 beep sequence.
To restart the ICS appliance from the command line, enter
Restart
If you are near the ICS appliance, you will hear a 2-beep, 4-beep sequence that repeats for a short period and then stops, signifying that your ICS appliance has restarted.
