System Power
The system power in the ProLiant 6000 Server does not shut off completely
with the front panel Power On/Standby switch. The two positions of the power
switch function as ON and STANDBY, rather than ON and OFF. The
STANDBY position removes power from most of the electronics and the
drives, but portions of the power supply, the system interlock circuitry and
some internal circuitry remain active.
To remove all power from the system completely, you must disconnect all
power cords from the server.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to
the equipment:
■
Disconnect power from the system by unplugging all power
cords from the power supplies.
■
Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The
grounding plug is an important safety feature.
■
Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical
outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
CAUTION:
Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic
components. Be sure you are properly grounded before beginning
any installation procedure. See Appendix B, “Electrostatic
Discharge,” for more information.
