Operations
Power up the server blade
The Onboard Administrator initiates an automatic power-up sequence when the server blade is installed. If
the default setting is changed, use one of the following methods to power up the server blade:
• Use a virtual power button selection through iLO 2.
• Press and release the Power On/Standby button.
When the server blade goes from the standby mode to the full power mode, the system power LED changes
from amber to green.
For more information about the Onboard Administrator, see the enclosure setup and installation guide on the
HP website (http://www.hp.com/support).
For more information about iLO 2, see "Integrated Lights-Out 2 technology (on page 59)."
Power down the server blade
Before powering down the server blade for any upgrade or maintenance procedures, perform a backup of
critical server data and programs.
Depending on the Onboard Administrator configuration, use one of the following methods to power down
the server blade:
• Use a virtual power button selection through iLO 2.
This method initiates a controlled remote shutdown of applications and the OS before the server blade
enters standby mode.
• Press and release the Power On/Standby button.
This method initiates a controlled shutdown of applications and the OS before the server blade enters
standby mode.
• Press and hold the Power On/Standby button for more than 4 seconds to force the server blade to enter
standby mode.
This method forces the server blade to enter standby mode without properly exiting applications and the
OS. It provides an emergency shutdown method if an application stops responding.
• Execute one of the following commands using the Onboard Administrator CLI:
poweroff server [bay number]
or
poweroff server [bay number] force
The first command initiates a controlled shutdown of applications and the OS before the server blade
enters standby mode. The second form of the command forces the server blade to enter standby mode
without exiting applications and the OS. This emergency method forces a shutdown if an application
stops responding.
• Use the Onboard Administrator GUI to initiate a shutdown:
