Starting the server
Before you start the server for the first time, make sure that:
■
The redundant power supply is autosensing. It automatically determines
the voltage of the incoming power source and compensates accordingly.
■
All cables are firmly connected to the proper ports on the back panel of
the server.
■
Both power supply modules in the redundant power supply are turned
on.
■
The server and monitor are plugged into an AC outlet, power strip, or
UPS (uninterruptable power supply) and that the power strip or UPS is
turned on.
To start the system:
1
If you have connected the system components to a power strip or UPS,
make sure all the system components are turned off, then turn on the
power strip or UPS.
2
Turn on the monitor.
3
Turn on the server. Make sure that the individual power buttons on the
power supply modules are turned on. The light-emitting diodes (LEDs)
on the front panel and on each power supply module are lit when the
power is on.
4
Turn on any other components connected to the server, such as speakers,
a printer, or a scanner. If nothing happens when you turn on the system:
■
Make sure that the power cables are securely plugged in and that
the power strip or UPS is plugged in and turned on.
■
Make sure that the monitor is connected to the server, plugged into
the power strip, AC outlet, or UPS, and turned on. You may also
need to adjust the brightness and contrast controls on the monitor.
Caution
Electricity can flow from connected peripherals into the
system causing a shock. Make sure your server and
peripherals are turned off and unplugged from the power
outlet when you connect peripherals to the server.
