Turning on the blade server
Use this information to turn on the blade server.
After you connect the blade server to power through the BladeCenter unit, the
blade server can start in any of the following ways:
v
You can press the power-control button on the front of the blade server (see
“Blade server controls and LEDs” on page 13) to start the blade server.
Notes:
1. Wait until the power-on LED on the blade server flashes slowly before you
press the power-control button. While the service processor in the blade
server is initializing and synchronizing with the management module, the
power-on LED flashes rapidly, and the power-control button on the blade
server does not respond. This process can take approximately two minutes
after the blade server has been installed.
2. While the blade server is starting, the power-on LED on the front of the
blade server is lit and does not flash. See “Blade server controls and LEDs”
on page 13 for the power-on LED states.
v
If a power failure occurs, the BladeCenter unit and the blade server can be
configured to start automatically when power is restored through the Advanced
Management Module.
v You can turn on the blade server remotely by using the management module.
v
If the blade server is connected to power (the power-on LED is flashing slowly),
the blade server is communicating with the management module, the operating
system supports the Wake on LAN feature, and the Wake on LAN feature has
not been disabled through the management module, the Wake on LAN feature
can turn on the blade server.
