Powering On Your System

Power on your system as follows.
1. Make sure all external devices, such as a video display, keyboard, and
mouse have been connected, and the power cords are connected.
2. Power on the video display and any other external devices.
3. Press the push-button power on/off switch on the front panel. Verify that the
system power-on LED is lit. See Figure 2-1 for the location of the power-on
LED.
Note:
board monitors and logs system voltage changes. When
powering up or down your system you may experience a
1–5 second delay from the time you press the push-button
power on/off switch on the front panel and your system
powering down. This is normal system operation and is
required by the server management logic.
After a few seconds your system begins the internal Power-On Self Tests
(POST). POST automatically checks the system board, CPU module, memory,
keyboard, and most installed peripheral devices.
Always allow POST to complete before powering down your
system.
If you have problems powering on your system, refer to Problem Solving in
Chapter 5 of this User's Guide.
