   Shutdown Warning Message


If a scrub or resilver is in progress when a shutdown is requested, an
additional warning will ask if you wish to proceed. In this case, it
is recommended to :guilabel:`Cancel` the shutdown request and to
periodically run :command:`zpool status` from :ref:`Shell` until the
scrub or resilver process is complete. Once complete, the shutdown
request can be re-issued.

Click the :guilabel:`Cancel` button to cancel the shutdown request.
Otherwise, click the :guilabel:`Shutdown` button to halt the system.
Shutting down the system disconnects all clients, including the web
administration GUI, and powers off the FreeNAS\ :sup:`®` system. Physical access
to the FreeNAS\ :sup:`®` system will be needed to turn it back on.
