Turning off the system-board tray
When you turn off the system-board tray and leave it connected to ac power, the
system-board tray can respond to requests from IMM2, such as a remote request to
turn on the system-board tray. While the system-board tray remains connected to
ac power, one or more fans might continue to run. To remove all power from the
system-board tray, you must disconnect it from the power source.
Some operating systems require an orderly shutdown before you turn off the
system-board tray. See your operating-system documentation for information about
shutting down the operating system.
