Operations

This chapter describes the hardware operations carried out prior to and after installing or removing a hardware option, or
performing a server maintenance or troubleshooting procedure.
Before performing these hardware operations, review and observe the server warnings and cautions.

Power up the server

To power up the server, use one of the following methods:
• Press the Power On/Standby button.
• Use the virtual power button through iLO.

Power down the server

Before powering down the server for any upgrade or maintenance procedures, perform a backup of critical server data
and programs.
IMPORTANT: When the server is in standby mode, auxiliary power is still being provided to the system.
To power down the server, use one of the following methods:
• Press and release the Power On/Standby button.
This method initiates a controlled shutdown of applications and the OS before the server enters standby mode.
• Press and hold the Power On/Standby button for more than 4 seconds to force the server to enter standby mode.
This method forces the server to enter standby mode without properly exiting applications and the OS. If an
application stops responding, you can use this method to force a shutdown.
• Use a virtual power button selection through iLO 5.
This method initiates a controlled remote shutdown of applications and the OS before the server enters standby
mode.
Before proceeding, verify that the server is in standby mode by observing that the system power LED is amber.

Remove the server from the rack

WARNING: This server is heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment:
• Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual material handling.
• Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the product is not
fastened to the rails. Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that a minimum of two people are required for all
rack server installations. A third person may be required to help align the server if the server is installed higher
than chest level.
• Use caution when installing the server in or removing the server from the rack; it is unstable when not fastened
to the rails.
