[. . . ] Always initiate a proper system shutdown as described below. · · · The system shutdown must be initiated either using the Barracuda NG Admin tool, a remote logon to the appliance or by using the LCD display and keypad on the appliance. The current status of the shutdown process will be shown on the appliance's LCD display. You may also use the serial console for this purpose. The status LED will turn off at the end of the shutdown procedure. 10 Appliance Installation Guide The Status LED Your appliance is equipped with a variety of LEDs. It is either labeled with a heart symbol or the term Status. It indicates the appliance's operational state by changing colors between green, orange and red and by changing between blinking and steady glowing. The table below shows the different meanings of the different glowing states. Table 2 Status LED Conditions Color Off Glowing State Off Meaning Installation Appliance is powered off or installation has not initialized far enough for LED control when installation is started. A hard disk can be selected first, then read-only checks for bad blocks are performed. In case of a positive, hard disk file system repair actions may be triggered via the CLI only. 12 Appliance Installation Guide · Test CPU Performs a load test of all available CPUs. · Get hardware info Displays all available information stored in a hidden partition on the appliance such as serial number, initial installation date, etc. · Test RAM Evokes a RAM checking utility. Note that not the whole existing RAM can be tested as ART OS occupies some RAM by itself. · System recovery Effectively invokes a reinstall of the appliance. For hard disk based appliances, an installation "*. iso" image as well as a backup PAR file are stored within a dedicated partition on the hard drive and will be used. Optionally, an *. iso image on an USB thumb drive connected to the appliance may be used. If no PAR file is available, the default installation for the corresponding appliance type is chosen. See also Performing a Recovery Process, page 15. For flash-only appliances, this option always requires an USB thumb drive connected to the system. The system will be recovered either to the release version of Barracuda NG Firewall it was first installed in, losing the updates installed since then, or to the state stored in a PAR file residing within the art partition of the system drive. Once your appliance is readily configured, you may save the configuration for ART recovery through Box > Active Recovery > Save Current Config. This will generate an ISO file within the art partition that will be used during the next recovery process. ART system recovery only works if the appliance was installed with Barracuda NG Firewall 5. 0. It is not possible to use ART system recovery on systems that were updated from 4. 0 or 4. 2. See Using ART Recovery without USB Stick, page 14, in order to learn about the ART recovery process. · Configuration reset Allows the definition of a new host name, management IP address, default route and optionally a network driver.
