Automatic power on restart

Caution
XP1024 hardware
As with all sophisticated electronic equipment, unstable power conditions
during a restart can induce problems. HP recommends automatic power on
restart only when power to the disk array is conditioned to ensure it is
stable, such as by using a UPS. If your site does not have a UPS, HP
recommends the disk array be configured for manual restart by keeping the
ENABLE/DISABLE switch in the DISABLE position and using the manual
restart procedure when power has been restored and verified.
The disk array will automatically restart and return to service when power
is restored. To enable this feature, place the ENABLE/DISABLE switch in
the ENABLE position and the PWR ON/OFF switch in the PWR ON
position. (Figure 11 on page
