Controls and Indicators

the user interface provided by the ACPI-compliant NOS. While power management is under the control of the ACPI-compliant NOS, the HP Server’s power button is capable of an override in case of a non-responsive NOS.

NOTE

The HP Server power button will force a power down without waiting for the NOS to

 

gracefully shut down the Server, if the power button is pressed and held for more than five

 

seconds.

 

 

CAUTION If the power button override is used, there is a strong possibility of corrupted or lost data.

Refer to the BIOS Setup Utility in Chapter 3, “Installing and Configuring” and your NOS documentation for instructions on setting up Sleep States and transitioning into and out of the various states.
