Sun Microsystems V890, V880 manual Loss of power, Turning on the computer

Troubleshooting

Loss of power

If the system loses power, it is recommended (but not required) that you empty the DVD-ROM and tape drives. The system boots from the hard disk drive by default.

Turning on the computer

1.Turn on any external SCSI devices, starting with the device that is farthest from the system and working toward the system.

2.Turn on the system monitor.

3.Turn the key switch to the On position. See the following figure.

4. Press and release the power button to the left of the key switch to turn on the system.

Note:

The POST diagnostics occurs each time that you turn on the system. The POST tests the basic system components. This may take several minutes.

If the system is operating properly, a banner screen is displayed up to 3 minutes after it is turned on.
