Power Switch:

Press this switch to turn your server on

or  off.

Attention:
Do not turn off the server if a drive in-use light is on. This
might damage the information stored on a hard disk or on a
diskette.

When the power is on, there is a period of time during the
power-on self-test (POST), a short test that occurs when the
server is turned on, when a single touch of the power switch
will not turn off the power. If power must be turned off
during POST, press and hold the power switch for 5 seconds
or disconnect the power cord. After POST, the power switch
works normally, unless the server is in a hang condition. If
the server is in a hang condition, press and hold the power
switch until the power turns off.
