The server powers on completely. The System Active indicator illuminates and the server executes the power-on self-test (POST).

To Power On Using the LOM poweron Command

At the lom> prompt, type:

lom>poweron

The SC first powers on all the power supplies, followed by the fan tray. Finally the SC powers on the system boards. If the value of the OpenBoot PROM variable auto-boot?is true then the server also boots the Solaris Operating System.

Note – Individual modules can also be powered on using the poweron command. For further details, see the Sun Fire Entry-Level Midrange System Controller Command Reference Manual, 819-1268.

The System Active indicator is lit. The server will execute the power-on self-tests (POST).

Note – The poweron all command only powers on individual components; it does not boot the Solaris software.

See the Sun Fire Entry-Level Midrange System Controller Command Reference Manual, 819-1268 for a full description of the poweron command.

Bringing the Server to Standby Mode

Powering off the system to Standby mode can be achieved by three methods:

From the Solaris command line

From the LOM port

By the On/Standby switch

When the system powers off to 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.
