Powering Up the CSS
To power up a CSS:
•
On an AC CSS, toggle the power switch to the 1 (on) position.
–
See
Figure 2-11

–
See
Figure 2-12
for the location of the CSS 11503 AC power switch.
–
See
Figure 2-14
for the location of the CSS 11506 AC power switch for
each power supply. Power on all of the supplies in the CSS. The AC OK
and DC OK LEDs light up on each power supply. If either LED remains
unlit, see the
“Troubleshooting the CSS Power Supply”
section later in
this chapter.
•
For a DC CSS, switch on the applicable circuit breakers for the power source.
Then on the CSS, toggle the power switch to the 1 (on) position.

See
Figure 2-15

The CSS starts the boot process. For information concerning the boot process on
the Cisco 11500 series CSS, refer to the Cisco Content Services Switch
Administration Guide.
Powering Down the CSS
To shut down the CSS gracefully and avoid introducing lost or fragmented files,
always use the shutdown command prior to removing power from the CSS.
For example:
(config-boot)# shutdown
Once the CSS shuts down all processes, you can remove power from the CSS.
