Turning on the system

After making sure that you have properly set up the system and
connected all the required cables, you can now power on the system.
To power on the system, press the power button on the front panel.
The system starts up and displays a welcome message. After that, a
series of power-on self-test (POST) messages appears. The POST
messages indicate if the system is running well or not.
Note: The illustration below shows the Altos G520 server chassis.
Note: If the system does not turn on or boot after pressing the
power button, go to the next section for the possible causes of the
boot failure.
Aside from the POST messages, you can determine if the system is in
good condition by checking if the following occurred:
• Power indicator on the front panel lights up (green)
• Num Lock, Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock indicators on the keyboard
light up
