When to Use This Section
Normally, you leave a system running. However, some procedures or recovery actions
require you to start the system (perform a system load) or stop or power off the
system.
Stop and then power off a system before:
An extended planned power outage for your building or computer room.
Performing some major maintenance or repair operations as noted in the
documentation.
Stop or restart a system (without powering off) when:
Installing an updated RVU or some software product revisions (SPRs).
Performing some recovery operations as noted in the documentation.
Restarting the system after the entire system has been shut down with the
operating system images and files on disk still intact.
Powering On a System
Powering on a system delivers AC power to the system cabinets. Fans on the
processor switches, processor Blade Elements, IOAM or VIO enclosures, and disk
drive enclosures start turning, and air begins to circulate through the components.
After the fans start to operate, most other system components begin to power on.
Status light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on the system components light during a series of
power-on self-tests (POSTs). Any of the LEDs can become lit briefly during the POSTs.
After all the POSTs finish successfully, which might take up to 10 minutes, only the
green power-on LED on each component in the system enclosures should remain lit.
For more information about the LEDs, refer to
System
on page 3-20.
The method you use to power on the system depends on whether the system is in a
low power state or completely powered off:
