Turning, server

Page 69 highlights

Turning off the server When you turn off the server and leave it connected to ac power, the server can respond to requests from the service processor, such as a remote request to turn on the server. To remove all power from the server, you must disconnect it from the power source. Some operating systems require an orderly shutdown before you turn off the server. See your operating-system documentation for information about shutting down the operating system. Statement 5: CAUTION: The power control button on the device and the power switch on the power supply do not turn off the electrical current supplied to the device. The device also might have more than one power cord. To remove all electrical current from the device, ensure that all power cords are disconnected from the power source. 2 1 You can turn off the server in any of the following ways: v You can turn off the server from the operating system, if your operating system supports this feature. After an orderly shutdown of the operating system, the server will be turned off automatically. v You can press the power-control button to start an orderly shutdown of the operating system and turn off the server, if your operating system supports this feature. v If the operating system stops functioning, you can press and hold the power-control button until the server turns off. v If the server is connected to an Advanced System Management interconnect network that contains at least one server with an optional Remote Supervisor Adapter installed, the server can be turned off from the Remote Supervisor Adapter user interface. v The server can be turned off from the Remote Supervisor Adapter user interface. v If the Wake on LAN feature turned on the server, the Wake on LAN feature can turn off the server. v The Remote Supervisor Adapter can turn off the server as an automatic response to a critical system failure. Note: When you press the power-control button on either the primary or secondary server in a 16-way configuration, both servers will be turned off. If both servers do not turn off when either power-control button is pressed, see the Hardware Maintenance Manual and Troubleshooting Guide on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD. Chapter 3.

the
server
When
you
turn
off
the
server
and
leave
it

the
server
can
respond
to
requests
from
the
service
processor,
such
as
a
remote
request
to
turn
on
the
server.
To
remove
all

from
the
power
source.
Some
operating
systems
require
an

before
you
turn
off
the

See
your
operating-system
documentation
for
information
about
shutting
down
the
operating
system.
Statement
5:
CAUTION:
The
power
control
button
on
the
device
and
the
power
switch
on
the
power
supply
do
not
turn
off
the
electrical
current
supplied
to
the
device.
The
device
also
might
have
more

Management
interconnect
network
that
contains
at
least
one
server
with
an
optional
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter
installed,
the
server
can
be
turned
off
from
the
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter
user
interface.
v
The
server
can
be
turned
off
from
the
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter
user
interface.
v
If
the
Wake
on
LAN
feature
turned
on
the
server,
the
Wake
on
LAN
feature
can
turn
off
the
server.
v
The

turn
off
the
server
as
an
automatic
response
to
a
critical
system
failure.
Note:
When
you
press
the
power-control
button
on
either
the
primary
or
secondary
server
in
a
16-way
configuration,
both

off.
If
both
servers
do
not
turn
off
when
either
power-control
button
is
pressed,
