Powering the Server On and Off
This section provides information on how to power off and power on the server.
Power States
The server has three power states:
•
Standby power
•
Full power
•
Off
Plug the power cord into the appropriate receptacle on the rear of the server to achieve the standby power
state; the front panel power button is not turned on. Full power occurs when the power cord is plugged into
the appropriate receptacle and either the power is activated through the iLO MP PC command, or the power
button is activated. In the off state, the power cords are not plugged in.
Table 1-17 lists the server power states.
