The power button on the server does not turn off server
AC power. To remove AC power from the server, you must
unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet or power
source. The power cord is considered the disconnect

If you routinely turn off your server (daily or weekly), do
not unplug the server or use the On/Off switch on the surge

cause the CMOS battery to fail prematurely.
