To power on the XStack Storage unit, press the power switch on the rear panel. When you power-on the XStack Storage unit, the following actions occur:

• The front panel Power OK LED goes ON.
• The XStack Storage unit runs its startup process, which takes from 4 to 5 minutes to complete.
• The front panel Link Status LEDs for the SATA drive LEDs may flash.

If your XStack Storage unit has a boot and fault LED that provides a visual indication of the startup process, the LED turns green when the XStack Storage unit completes the startup process successfully.

If the process is not completed successfully, the LED turns red. If this occurs, reboot the XStack Storage unit. If the problem persists, contact Technical Support.
