3 Powering Off and Powering On the Server
This chapter provides information and procedures for powering off and powering on the server.
Power States
The server has three power states:
•
Standby power
• Full power
• Off
Plug the power cord into the appropriate receptacle on the rear of the chassis to achieve the
standby power state; the front panel Power button is not turned on. Full power occurs when the
power cord is plugged into the appropriate receptacle, and either the power is activated through
the iLO MP PC command, or the Power button is activated. In the off state, the power cords are
not plugged in.
Table 3-1 shows the server power states.
