Powering Down the Server
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric shock, or damage to the
equipment, remove the power cord to remove power from the server. The front panel
Power On/Standby button does not completely shut off system power. Portions of the
power supply and some internal circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
