Powering On an IS-NAS Server

To power on a server or cluster, do the following:

1.

Verify that all servers are switched off.

2.

Beginning with expansion enclosures, start all storage subsystems. 

3.

Wait until the disk LEDs on all of the expansion enclosures have stopped blinking (which 

indicates that they are spinning up) or two minutes, whichever comes first. 

4.

Start the storage subsystem RAID controller enclosures. 

The disk drives in some storage enclosures will not spin up until commanded to do so by the 
RAID controller. Consequently, the LEDs of those drives may continue to blink until after 
the RAID controller enclosure has sent those commands and the drives have spun up.

5.

For a cluster configuration, or when using an external System Management Unit (SMU), 

start the SMU by depressing the red button located on the right of the unit. 

6.

Wait one minute to allow the external SMU to start.

7.

Power up the IS-NAS server or the first node in the cluster. 

To switch the power on for a server/node: 

If the power cables are not connected to the PSU, plug in the power cables. If, after 10 

seconds, the PSU LEDs are lit but the Power Status LED on the rear panel is not lit, 
press the 

PWR

 button to restore power to the system boards. 

If the power cables are connected to the PSU, press the 

PWR

 button on the rear of the 

server. 

The power button may be used to restore power to the system when the server is in a standby 
power state. Normally, when power cables are connected to the PSUs, the server will power 
up immediately. If, after 10 seconds, the LEDs on the power supplies are lit but the Power 
Status LED is not lit, press the 

PWR

 button to restore power to the system. 

Note:  

Do not use the 

PWR

 button during normal operation of the server. Pressing this button 

will cause an improper shutdown: it immediately powers down the system, but the PSUs and 
system fans will continue to run.

8.

If you are starting a cluster, wait 5 to 10 seconds before powering on the next node in the 

cluster.
