●Todisable the On/Standby switch, use the setupsc command.
Powering On the Server
When all the power cables are connected and the external circuit breakers are
switched on, the server enters Standby mode. The Source A and Source B indicators
are the only indicator LEDs to be illuminated on the system indicator board. The
IB_SSC assembly Active LED is lit, but not visible from the front of the server.
Powering the server on from Standby mode can be achieved in either of two ways:
■Operating the On/Standby switch
■Sending the poweron command via the LOM port
The On/Standby switch of the Netra 1290 server controls only low voltage signals
and no high voltage circuits pass through it.
Note – The power switch is not an On/Off switch, it is an On/Standby switch. It
does not isolate the equipment.
Once the server is powered on, if the auto-boot? variable has been set true in the
OpenBoot PROM, the server will automatically boot into the Solaris Operating
System.
▼To Power On Using the On/Standby Switch
1. Check that power is applied to the server and that it is correctly in Standby mode.
2. Momentarily press the On/Standby switch to the right.
