2-18 Setting Up the System
Powering On the Server System
Power on your system as follows.
1. Make sure all external devices, such as a video display, keyboard, and
mouse have been connected, and the power cords are connected.
2. Power on the video display and any other external devices.
Note: If the server power cord is connected to a power
control unit such as an UPS (Uninterruptive Power Supply)
make sure that the power control unit is powered on.
3. Press the push-button power on/off switch on the front panel (see
Figure 2-13). Verify that the server power-on LED is lit.
Note: The server management logic on your system
board monitors and logs system voltage changes. When
powering up or down your system you may experience a
1–5 second delay from the time you press the push-button
power on/off switch on the front panel and your system
powering up or down. This is normal system operation and is
required by the server management logic.
