Shutting Down and Powering Off the Server
The server can run in two power modes:
•

hard 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 an emergency shutdown (hard shutdown) by using either of the
following methods:
•
Use the CIMC management interface.
•
Use the
Power
button on the server front panel. To use the
Power
button, follow these steps:

“Operations Panel LEDs and Buttons” section on
page 3-4
).
