How to shutdown and restart your Avaya S8300 Server

Server Shutdown Operations:


Depending upon the circumstances, different server shutdown operations may be required:

If you are replacing an active S8300 Media Server, a functional but inactive LSP, or a functional hard drive, you can use the Web interface to shut down the server:

Go to the Avaya CM System Management Interface webpage:

https://YOUR-AVAYA-CM-IP-ADDRESS/cgi-bin/common/login/webLogin
 
Under Server, click Shutdown This Server.

On the Shutdown This Server screen, system restart checkboxes include:

Delayed (default option) - the system waits for processes to close files and other cleanup activities to finish before the server is shut down

Immediate - the system does not wait for processes to terminate normally before it shuts the server down

Accept the default option.

Leave the checkbox After Shutdown, Restart System unchecked.

Click Shutdown.
