Powering On a Domain
What You Can Do
During the domain power–on sequence, you can:
•
View functional status
•
View power logs
•
View powering sequences
•
View BIOS info
•
View request logs
•
View domain configuration, resources and status
Important:
Certain domain configuration and management tools are reserved for use with
partitioned servers and extended systems. Please contact your Bull
Sales
Representative for sales information.
Once connected to the Customer’s site power supply, the server initializes to the stand–by
mode and the integrated PAP unit powers up. The server is not equipped with a physical
power button and server domains are powered up from the PAM
Domain Manager Control
pane.
Check server functional status via the PAM Status Pane . If functional status is normal and
the CSS Availability bar is green, server domains can be powered up.
Note:
Server domains may be powered up even if the server presents a minor fault. See System
Functional Status , on page 4-4. However, you are advised to contact your Customer Service
Engineer so that the fault can be repaired.
To power up a domain:
