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.

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
