Procedure 7-3 Powering Cells and I/O Chassis On and Off (Service Processor) Use the Command menu PE command to power on and power off cells, I/O chassis, and cabinets from the service processor interface (GSP or MP). CAUTION: When using the PE command at the service processor Command menu to power on or off hardware, be certain to specify the correct component to power on or off. The PE command does not check whether the hardware is actively being used. You can manage the power for all components within the server complex by using the PE command at the service processor Command menu, regardless of any nPartition assignment or the status (active or inactive) for the hardware components. 1. Login to the service processor for the server and access the Command menu. From the service processor Main menu, enter CM to access the Command menu. To exit the Command menu enter MA. 2. Issue the PE command and specify the type of hardware whose power you want to turn on or turn off. You can manage power to cells, I/O chassis, and cabinets. 3. Specify the hardware device to power on or power off. The service processor does not check whether the specified component is currently being used. • Cabinets-When you power on or off a cabinet, the firmware also powers on or off all cells and I/O chassis in the cabinet. • Cells-When you power on or off a cell, the firmware also powers on or off any I/O chassis attached to the cell. When specifying a cell, you indicate both the cabinet number and the slot in which the cell resides. • I/O Chassis-When you power off an I/O chassis from the service processor Command menu, the system firmware resets the cell attached to the I/O chassis (if the cell located and mapped the I/O chassis during its cell boot process). When specifying an I/O chassis, you indicate the cabinet, bay, and chassis numbers to identify it. In the following example, the service processor powers off cell 2 in cabinet 0.
