and nodes installed in the same enclosure. A blade unit may be powered up in two ways:

the CMM module (this requires Operator or Admin privileges on the CMM).

A blade unit may be powered down in either of the following ways:
•
Press the power button on the blade unit.
•
Use IPMIView, IPMItool or the web-browser based management utility to power down (this
requires Operator or Admin privileges on the CMM).
Removing a Blade Unit from the Enclosure
Although the blade system may continue to run, individual blades should always be powered
down before removing them from the enclosure.
Removing a Blade Unit from the Enclosure
