Executing Power Control Operations on a Server
NOTE: To perform power management actions, you must have Chassis Control
Administrator privilege.
The CMC enables you to remotely perform several power management
actions, for example, an orderly shutdown, on an individual server in the
chassis.
Using the Web Interface
1 Log in to the CMC Web interface.
2 Expand Servers in the system tree, and then select the server on which you
want to execute a power control operation. The
Server Status page
displays.
3 Click the Power Management tab. The Server Power Management page
displays.
4 Select one of the following Power Control Operations by clicking its radio
button:
•
Power On System — Turns on the system power (equivalent to
pressing the power button when the system power is off). This option
is disabled if the server is already powered on.
•
Power Off System — Turns off the system power (equivalent to
pressing the power button when the system power is on).
•
Graceful Shutdown — Powers off and then reboots the server.
•
Reset System (warm boot) — Reboots the server without powering
off. This option is disabled if the server is powered off.

Power Cycle System (cold boot) — Powers off and then reboots the
server. This option is disabled if the server is powered off.
