Powering On
Use the following procedure to power on the Cisco UCS Invicta C3124SA Appliance:
Step 1
Attach a supplied power cord to each power supply in your Cisco UCS Invicta C3124SA Appliance, and
then attach the power cord to a grounded AC power outlet. See the
Physical Specifications, page A-1
for
power specifications.
Wait for approximately two minutes to let the Cisco UCS Invicta C3124SA Appliance boot in standby
power during the first bootup.
You can verify power status by looking at the Power Status LED (see
Figure 1-3 on page 1-3
):
•
Off—There is no AC power present in the Cisco UCS Invicta C3124SA Appliance.
•
Amber—The Cisco UCS Invicta C3124SA Appliance is in standby power mode. Power is supplied
only to the CIMC and some motherboard functions.
•
Green—The Cisco UCS Invicta C3124SA Appliance is in main power mode. Power is supplied to
all Cisco UCS Invicta C3124SA Appliance components.
Note
During bootup, the Cisco UCS Invicta C3124SA Appliance beeps once for each USB device that
is attached to the Cisco UCS Invicta C3124SA Appliance. Even if there are no external USB
devices attached, there is a short beep for each virtual USB device such as a virtual floppy drive,
CD/DVD drive, keyboard, or mouse. Connect a USB keyboard and VGA monitor by using the
supplied KVM cable connected to the KVM connector on the front panel (see
Figure 1-3 on
page 1-3
).
