Turning the server on

Before turning the server on, make sure it is in its upright position; the
Workgroup Server 9150 is not designed to run on its side.

To turn on the server for the first time, follow these steps.

1

Turn on the monitor.

See the information that came with your monitor for the location of the power
switch. On Apple monitors, the power switch has this icon: I.

Note: You only need to turn on the monitor once if it is plugged into the
server. From now on, the monitor will turn off automatically when you shut
down the server, and it will turn on automatically when you start up the server.
(If the monitor is not plugged into the server, it must be turned on separately
each time you turn on the server.)

2

Turn on all external devices.

External devices may include hard disk drives, CD-ROM drives, or tape-backup
drives. The server checks only once—at startup—for the presence of external
devices, so you need to turn on the devices before you turn on the server.

3

Use the key supplied with the server to turn the key lock switch to the “on” position

(straight up).

The “on” position is marked with this symbol:
