2-8 Setting Up the System
Powering Off the Server System
When server system power is on, pressing the power on/off switch on the front
panel of the server turns the power off.
To turn the server system power off:
1. Shutdown the operating system (OS).
2. Press the power on/off switch on the front panel of the server. The power-on
LED goes out.
3. Power off the peripheral devices.
Note: If the server power cord is connected to a power
control unit such as an UPS (Uninterruptible Power S upply),
refer to the UPS user's guide for proper power-off
procedures.
Forcing a Power Shutdown
A forced power shutdown can be used when the power on/off switch does not
power off the server or the reset functions do not work.
To perform a forced power shutdown:
Press in on the power on/off switch located on the front panel of the
server for at least 4 seconds to force the server power off.
To power on after a forced shutdown, wait 10 seconds and then power on again.
