Understanding Power Management Options on the OnBoard
Service Processor Power Management
Authorized users and administrators can manage power for a server whose
service processor is connected to the OnBoard when the service processor
provides power management capabilities.
OnBoard administrators and other authorized users most-commonly perform
service processor power management through the Web Manager or through
service processor management commands that can be passed as parameters to
the
ssh
command.
