Shutting Down and Powering Off the Server
The server can run in two power modes:
•
Main power mode—Power is supplied to all server components and any operating system on your
drives can run.
•
Standby power mode—Power is supplied only to the service processor and the cooling fans and it
is safe to power off the server from this mode.
You can invoke a graceful shutdown or a hard shutdown by using either of the following methods:
•
Use the Cisco IMC management interface.
•
Use the Power button on the server front panel. To use the Power button, follow these steps:

shutdown and the server goes to standby mode, which is indicated by an amber Power Status LED.
•
Emergency shutdown—Press and hold the Power button for 4 seconds to force the main power off
and immediately enter standby mode.
Step 3
