the Power On Off page of the iRMC S2 Web interface.
V CAUTION when turning the power off
(Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2003)!
The operation of the power switch can be specified as "Do Nothing", "Ask
me what to do" (only for Windows Server 2003), "Stand by", "Hibernate",
and "Shutdown" depending on the OS settings. The default is
"Shutdown".
On this server, functions corresponding to "Stand by" and "Hibernate" are
supported as BIOS and hardware functions. However, some drivers and
software installed in theserver do not support these functions. For this
reason, functions corresponding to "Stand by" and "Hibernate" are
unavailable on this server. When the operating mode is set to "Stand by"
or "Hibernate", the system may operate improperly or hard disk data may
be corrupted.
For details about operating mode settings, refer to the manual supplied
with the OS.
