The system power LED turns amber when the server is powered down
in this manner to indicate that auxiliary power is still present in the

WARNING: Setting the server Power On/Standby button to the off position
removes power from most areas of the server; this process may take
30 seconds. Portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry remain
active until the AC power cord is disconnected.

power cords to remove all power from the system.
NOTE: On the tower server, open the front bezel to reach the Power On/Standby button.
