user guide.

A restore policy controls how the system responds when power is connected to the server. To
set a restore policy:

1.

Select the Power Restore Policy by choosing one of the following options:

Always power up—Powers on the server immediately after power is supplied.

Restore to powered state prior to power loss—Powers on the system if the system was
in the powered on state before a loss of power.

Power pushbutton or command required to power on system—Causes the server to
wait for external action before powering on the system.

2.

Click Set.

The power restore policy becomes becomes active after a successful BIOS post.

Controlling server power through the CLP

1.

Log in to LO100 CLP as described in the "Logging in to LO100” section.

2.

Change to the system1 target by entering cd system1.

3.

To power on the server, enter start /system1. For example:

/./system1/> start /system1

System1 started.

4.

To power off the server, enter stop /system1. For example:

/./system1/> stop /system1

System1 stopped.

The -force option can also be used with the stop command. This option forces the
implementation to stop the target, ignoring any policy that might cause the implementation
to normally not execute the command. In remote management processor implementation,
this process is equivalent to a hard power down.

5.

To reset the server, enter reset /system1. For example:

/./system1/> reset

System1 reset.

Monitoring sensors

LO100 provides operating system-independent remote monitoring of the current status of major
sensors of a target server including system temperature, fans, and voltage. You can view the
data for this feature on the Monitoring Sensors Page through a web browser or through the BIOS
Setup Utility.

Viewing sensor data from a web browser

The Monitoring Sensors screen displays a snapshot of the temperature, fans, and voltage sensor
data, including sensor type, name, status, and current reading. To access this page from a web
browser, on the main menu navigation bar, click Monitoring Sensor.
