Starting your server
__
Plug in your server or uninterruptible power supply and attached expansion units.
__
Open the control panel door on the front of the server. The control panel should be lit and display 01 N V=F. The
server is not yet powered on.
Note:
1. Expect a delay between the time that the power is applied to the server or workstation and the time that an
initial program load (IPL) can be performed. When power is initially applied to the server or workstation,
the service processor performs a self-check and leaves the control panel blank for up to two minutes. You
must wait until the C1XX XXXX progress codes are complete and the control panel displays 01 before you
perform an IPL or change the control panel functions.
2. If 01 N V=F is not displayed, you might need to change the mode. To change the mode, see Accessing the
control panel functions.
__
When prompted, enter a new HMC access password. This password is case sensitive.
__
Press the white Power On button. There is a short delay of approximately 5 to 20 minutes until the server
powers on. When the server powers on, the control panel displays 01 B N V=F. If the control panel displays A900
2000, the console is not connected yet.
