Turn off power

Some peripheral devices may need to be turned off before

the system equipment is turned off. For details, see the

manuals of the peripheral devices.

Execute shutdown for each server blade from the OS.

When power is turned off, the POWER LED on the server blade lights solid orange.

 Turn off the power forcibly

When the OS does not operate normally, the shutdown or normal power-down process of

the server blade may not be possible. If this happens, press and hold the power switch for

at least 4 seconds to turn off power.

If the power is forcibly turned off, subsequent normal operation of the OS or applications

and data security cannot be guaranteed.

 Turn off the power of the system equipment

When turning off system equipment power, power off all server blades, and then execute

the shutdown of the management module by using the Software Defined Networking

(SDN) Command from the system service processor (SVP) console. See "SDN

Command" in Chapter 6 for further details.

 Power saving

System Standby and Hibernate functions are not supported.

Do not select System Standby and Hibernate from Shutdown in the Start menu.

System Standby, HDD Power Off, and Hibernate in the power supply options are not

available. Leave them set to None.

If Standby is selected in Windows, the system goes into standby and the power LED

starts blinking green. To recover from standby, press the Power button on the front panel

of the blade for a short period -- less than a second. This will recover the system and

return the power LED to solid green.

Reboot the OS after recovering from standby, and the OS will return to normal operation.
