About this task
NOTE: If the node was removed from the chassis, reseat the node, reconnect the power cables, and log in to the
associated vCenter server to exit the ESXi host for the node from Maintenance Mode. The controller VM powers on
automatically, and then the node will power on. For primary internal M.2 boot module replacements, the node
automatically powers on once you reconnect the power cables or run the svc_node service script.
Use the following procedure to power on a PowerStore X model node in scenarios such as:
• You are remote and cannot reseat the node.
• Node was not removed from the chassis.
• Embedded module, I/O module, and 4-port card were replaced.
Steps
1. Launch an SSH client, and connect to the appliance using the management IP address. Since only the peer node is powered on, you
are connected directly to the peer node of the appliance.
2. Enter the username and password that is associated with the service account, and log in.
3. Run the following command:
svc_node power_on
This command powers on the ESXi host for the intended node.
4. Log in to the associated vCenter server, and exit the ESXi host for the node from Maintenance Mode.
The controller VM powers on automatically.
NOTE: For primary internal M.2 boot module replacements, skip this step. The node automatically powers on once
you reconnect the power cables or run the svc_node service script.
5. Monitor the vCenter server console to ensure that the ESXi host and controller VM have returned to normal operation.
