VGA DB-15 video port: Use the video port to attach a color monitor to the server.
■
USB Ports: USB ports support hot-plugging. You can connect and disconnect USB
■
cables and peripheral devices without affecting system operations.
■
■
Power cables: Do not attach power cables to the power supplies until you have
■
finished connecting the data cables, and have connected the server to a serial
terminal or a terminal emulator (PC or workstation).
Note – The server goes into Standby mode and the SP initializes as soon as a power
cable connects a power supply to an external power source. System messages might
be lost after 60 seconds if a terminal or terminal emulator is not connected to the SER
MGT port before power is applied.
