Select a group from the Selected Group menu.

The grouped servers are listed by power state with a counter that shows the total number of
servers in each state.

All of the servers in the selected group will be affected by the changes you make on this page.
For information about viewing the list of affected servers, see

Do one of the following:

To change the power state for servers that are in the ON or Reset state, click one of the
following buttons on the left side of the page:

Momentary Press —The same as pressing the physical power button.

Some operating systems might be configured to initiate a graceful shutdown after a
momentary press, or to ignore this event. HP recommends using system commands
to complete a graceful operating system shutdown before you attempt to shut down
by using the Virtual Power button.

Press and Hold—The same as pressing the physical power button for 5 seconds and
then releasing it.

The servers in the selected group are powered off as a result of this operation. Using
this option might circumvent the graceful shutdown features of the operating system.

This option provides the ACPI functionality that some operating systems implement.
These operating systems behave differently depending on a short press or long press.
