Turning on the server

Turning on the server refers to the act of plugging the power cord of your server into the power source and starting the operating system.

Complete the following steps to turn on the server:

1.Plug the power cord of your server into the power source.

Note: Plugging the power cord into a power source may cause the server to start automatically. This is an acceptable action.

2.Wait 30 seconds then press the power control button on the front of the server.

You can press the Power control button on the front of the server to start the server.

Note: After you plug the power cord of your server into an electrical outlet, wait approximately 20 seconds before pressing the Power control button. During this time, the system-management processor is initializing and the Power control button does not respond.

If the server is turned on and a power failure occurs, the server will start automatically when power is restored.

The Advanced System Management Processor can also turn on the server.

CAUTION:

The power control button on the device and the power switch on the power supply (if there is one) do not turn off the electrical current supplied to the device. The device also might have more than one power cord. To remove all electrical current from the device, ensure that all power cords are disconnected from the power source.
