Apply power to the A-Class server by toggling the rocker power switch on the rear of the
server from the 0 position to the 1 position. All of the front panel LEDs will illuminate
for a moment, then turn off. Only the green power LED will remain illuminated until
power is switched off. If the LEDs do not illuminate or the server does not appear to
power on, refer to Chapter 3, "A-Class System Service," on page 61.
The server will automatically conduct a selftest and, upon completion, the firmware
Main Menu screen will be displayed at the system console. Only the power LED should
be illuminated at this point.
If AUTOBOOT is enabled, the system will automatically try to boot HP-UX from the
PRIMARY PATH. If you want to interrupt the boot process, press any key on the
