Server

power

features

When

the

server

is

connected

to

a

power

source

but

is

not

turned

on,

the

operating

system

does

not

run,

and

all

core

logic

except

for

the

Integrated

Management

Module

(IMM)

is

shut

down;

however,

the

server

can

respond

to

requests

from

the

IMM,

such

as

a

remote

request

to

turn

on

the

server.

The

power-on

LED

flashes

to

indicate

that

the

server

is

connected

to

power

but

is

not

turned

on.

Turning

on

the

server

Approximately

3

minutes

after

the

server

is

connected

to

power,

the

power-control

button

becomes

active,

and

one

or

more

fans

might

start

running

to

provide

cooling

while

the

server

is

connected

to

power.

You

can

turn

on

the

server

and

start

the

operating

system

by

pressing

the

power-control

button.

If

a

power

failure

occurs

while

the

server

is

turned

on,

the

server

will

restart

automatically

when

power

is

restored.

For

32-bit

operating

systems

only:

Some

memory

is

reserved

for

various

system

resources

and

is

unavailable

to

the

operating

system.

The

amount

of

memory

that

is

reserved

for

system

resources

depends

on

the

operating

system,

the

configuration

of

the

server,

and

the

configured

PCI

options.

Turning

off

the

server

When

you

turn

off

the

server

and

leave

it

connected

to

power,

the

server

can

respond

to

requests

from

the

IMM,

such

as

a

remote

request

to

turn

on

the

server.

While

the

server

remains

connected

to

power,

one

or

more

fans

might

continue

to

run.

To

remove

all

power

from

the

server,

you

must

disconnect

it

from

the

power

source.
Important:

To

view

the

error

LEDs

on

the

system

board,

leave

the

server

connected

to

a

power

source.
