Using the Server

This chapter describes basic server operation, how to turn the server on and off, and how to use
Roamer remote management.
After the server chassis is connected to AC power, the server can be turned on in any of the
following ways:
• Press the power-control button on the front of the server.
While the server is powering up, the power LED on the front of the chassis is lit.
• If a power failure occurs, the server can be started automatically when power is restored.
This is only available if the Rackable Roamer remote management module was ordered for
the server.
• If the operating system you installed on the server supports the Wake on LAN feature, the
Wake on LAN feature can turn on the server.
The Wake on LAN feature only works if it was not disabled through the system BIOS, and if
the server was previously turned on and the operating system was shut down properly.
