Setting Power-On Delay

Delay the server from turning on for the desired time. Pressing the power button (using the iLO
Virtual Power Button) Wake-ON LAN events and RTC (Real-Time Clock) wake-up events overrides
the delay and immediately turns on the server. This allows staggering when servers power-up after
a power loss to prevent power usage spikes.

To set Power-On Delay:
1.

From the System Utilities screen, select System Configuration

→BIOS/Platform Configuration

(RBSU)

→Server Availability and select Power-On Delay and press Enter.

2.

Select one of the following options:

No Delay (default)

Random Delay

3.

Press F10 to save your selection.
