Chapter 2: Setting Up Your Server
Starting your server
Before you start your server for the first time:
■ Make sure that the server and monitor are plugged into a power outlet or UPS and
that the UPS (if you are using one) is turned on.
■ Make sure that all cables are connected securely to the correct ports and jacks on the
back of the server.
To start the server:
■ Press the power button.
Important
When you plug the AC power cords into the power supplies, wait for
20 to 30 seconds. The system will automatically power on for about
3 seconds, then power down. This allows the BMC to initialize the
out-of-band management capabilities.
Caution
When you connect peripheral devices to the server, make sure that
your server and devices are turned off and the power cords are
unplugged.
