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:
1 Remove the front bezel. See "To remove the front bezel"section
on page 37.
2 After plugging the power cord, wait 40 seconds to fully initialize
the BMC, then press the power button.
The system starts up and displays a welcome message on the monitor.
After that, a series of POST messages appears. The POST messages
indicate if the system is running well or not.
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.
