Control Panel Buttons

There are two push-buttons located on the front of the chassis. These are a power
on/off button and a reset button.
Power: The main power switch is used to apply or remove power from the power
supply to the server system. Turning off system power with this button removes the
main power but keeps standby power supplied to the system. Therefore, you must
unplug system before servicing.
Reset: The reset button is used to reboot the system. A needle, pen, or other small
device is required to activate this button and reset the system
