Configuring the Power Restore Policy

The power restore policy determines how power is restored to the server after a chassis power loss.

Before You Begin

You must log in with admin privileges to perform this task.

Procedure

	Command or Action	Purpose
Step 1	Server# scope chassis	Enters the chassis command mode.
Step 2	Server /chassis # set policy	Specifies the action to be taken when chassis power is restored.
	{power-off power-on	Select one of the following:
	restore-last-state}	• power-off—Server power will remain off until manually
		turned on. This is the default action.
		• power-on—Server power will be turned on when chassis
		power is restored.

Step 3 Server /chassis # set delay {fixed random}

•restore-last-state—Server power will return to the state before chassis power was lost.

When the selected action is power-on, you can select a delay in the restoration of power to the server.

(Optional)

Specifies whether server power will be restored after a fixed or random time. The default is fixed. This command is accepted only if the power restore action is power-on.

Step 4	Server /chassis # set	(Optional)
	delay-value delay	Specifies the delay time in seconds. The range is 0 to 240; the
		default is 0.
Step 5	Server /chassis # commit	Commits the transaction to the system configuration.

This example sets the power restore policy to power-on with a fixed delay of 180 seconds (3 minutes) and commits the transaction:

Server# scope chassis

Server /chassis # set policy power-on

Server /chassis *# set delay fixed

Server /chassis *# set delay-value 180

Server /chassis *# commit

Server /chassis # show detail
