Applying Power to the Appliance

Powering-Up the Appliance

are connected prior to powering on the appliance.

self-tests (POST) during this process.

Powering-Down the Appliance

• Before powering down, insure that the Traffic Server settings have been
backed up by using the Snapshots button in Traffic Manager as described in
the HP Cache Server Appliance Administrator Guide.

a telnet or VT100 serial session before powering down with
the power switch, reset switch or by removing the power
cable.
1. Shutdown the appliance by establishing a telnet or serial port connection and
selecting shutdown.
