Powering Off at L2 Controller Touch Display
24
You can power off individual bricks or your entire server from the L2 controller touch
display (located on the front door of rack 001) or from the system console, as explained
in the sections that follow.
Note: To verify that the power-off procedure is proceeding properly, make sure that the
On/Off LEDs and the 48-VDC LEDs turn off and that your L1 controllers display that the
server is powering off for each segment of the procedure. If you have a problem while
powering off and an error message appears on your L2 controller touch display, your
console, or the L1 controller display, see your online log files and the information in "L1
Controller Error Messages" on page 232 to learn what the error message indicates and
how to resolve the problem.
If you are logged on to the server, log out.
If you are planning to power down a D-brick2 or an entire rack of D-brick2s, see
"Powering Off D-brick2" on page 34.
This section describes how to use the L2 controller touch display to power off individual
bricks or the entire server. If you have multiple racks whose L2 controllers are
interconnected at an Ethernet hub, you can power off any brick in those racks or the
entire server at the L2 controller touch display on the front door of rack 001.
For instructions on how to use the L2 controller touch display, see "L2 Controller" on
page 116.
