Disabling Operation of the On/Standby Switch

●

To disable 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.
