Power (short press) - A short press on the ATX button is normally caught by the
running operating system that tries to initiate a controlled shut down. Do this to
switch off the system. If this does not work try the long press button.

After pressing, the power state displayed in the administration panel won't
immediately reflect the requested change. A controlled shut down of the system may
take some minutes. Observe the action caused by your button press using the
Remote Console window or by reloading the Server Power Control panel.

Power (long press) - This will unconditionally power off the system. Even if you
have submitted a short press before, this will shut down the power supply of the host
system. The effect of the long button press can be immediately observed on the
panel that is loaded into the browser because of the button press. The power state
will be off.

If IPMI is enabled, the power control functions are performed over IPMI requests.
This may take a few seconds.

If IPMI is disabled, the power control functions are performed through the external
power control options.
