This chapter describes the hardware operations carried out before and after installing or removing a hardware option, or
performing system maintenance or troubleshooting.
Powering down the system
Before powering down the system for any upgrade or maintenance procedures, back up critical system data and programs.
Before performing chassis maintenance, shut down all blades installed in the chassis.
To power down, use one of the following methods:
• Press and hold the Power on button on the server blade.
This method initiates a controlled shutdown of applications and the OS before the server enters standby mode.
• Press and hold the Power On/Standby button of the blades installed in the chassis for more than 4 seconds to force the
system to power down.
This method forces the system to power down without properly exiting applications and the OS. If an application stops
responding, you can use this method to force a shutdown.
• Use the virtual power button in the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager web interface.
• Use the virtual power button in the iLO web interface hosted on the blade.
• Enter the
set power off b
<slot#>
at the chassis manager CLI. See the HPE Edgeline EL8000 Converged Edge
System Chassis Manager CLI User Guide on the
HPE website for details on CLI commands.
Before proceeding, verify that the server blade is in standby mode by observing that the system power LED is amber. See
Power supply LEDs.
Powering up the system
If the HPE Edgeline EL8000 Converged Edge chassis is connected to a power source, it powers up automatically by default.
Generally, it has to be powered up only after a manual shutdown.
Use one of the following methods to power on blades:
• Press and release the power button on the server blade.
• Use the virtual power button in theEdgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager web interface.
• Use the virtual power button in the iLO web interface hosted on the blade.
• Enter the
set power on b
<slot#>
at the chassis manager CLI. See the HPE Edgeline EL8000 Converged Edge
System Chassis Manager CLI User Guide on the
HPE website for details on CLI commands.
Before proceeding, verify that the server blade is powered on by observing that the system power LED is green. See
Removing the blade from the chassis
