Power down the server

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric shock, or damage to the equipment,

remove the power cord to remove power from the server. The front panel Power On/Standby
button does not completely shut off system power. Portions of the power supply and some

internal circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.

IMPORTANT:

If installing a hot-plug device, it is not necessary to power down the server.

Back up the server data.

Shut down the operating system as directed by the operating system documentation.

3.

If the server is installed in a rack, press the UID LED button on the front panel. Blue LEDs illuminate on
the front and rear panels of the server.

4.

Press the Power On/Standby button to place the server in standby mode. When the server activates
standby power mode, the system power LED changes to amber.

If the server is installed in a rack, locate the server by identifying the illuminated rear UID LED button.

Disconnect the power cords.

The system is now without power.

Extend the server from the rack

Pull down the quick-release levers on each side of the server to release the server from the rack.

IMPORTANT:

If the server is installed in a telco rack, remove the server from the rack to access

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, be sure that the rack

is adequately stabilized before extending a component from the rack.

To reduce the risk of personal injury, be careful when pressing the server rail-

release latches and sliding the server into the rack. The sliding rails could pinch your fingers.
