Table 8-19 Power & Reset Page Description Fields and Buttons System Power System Power Control Description The current power state of the system. A user with power control access can issue the following options for remote control of the system power: • Power Cycle: Turns system power off and on. The delay between off and on is 30 seconds. • Power On: Turns system power on (it has no effect if power is already on). • Power Off: Turns system power off. This is equivalent to forcing the system power off with the front panel power switch. There is no signal sent to the OS to bring the software down before power is turned off. For proper system shutdown, shutdown the OS before issuing this command. • Graceful Shutdown: BMC sends a signal to the OS to shutdown, prior to turning off system power supported by IPF operating systems. System Power Restore Settings This option enables you to configure the power restore policy. The power restore policy determines how the system behaves when ac power returns after an ac power loss. You must have iLO configuration access right to use this option. • Restore Previous Power State: The power is restored to the state that was in effect when ac was removed or lost. • Automatically Power On: The system is powered up after ac is applied. • Remain Powered Off: The system stays powered off after ac is applied. Pushing the system power switch or choosing the Power On option under System Power Control is required to power on the system. System Reset This feature has the following options: • Reset through RST signal: This option causes the system to reset through the RST signal. Under normal operation, shut down the OS before issuing this command. Execution of this command irrecoverably halts all system processing and I/O activity and restarts the computer system. The effect of this command is very similar to cycling the system power - the OS is not notified, no dump is taken on the way down, and so on. You must have power control access right to issue this option. • Reset through INIT or TOC signal: This option causes the system to be reset through the INIT or Transfer of Control (TOC) signal. Under normal operation, shut down the OS before issuing this command. Execution of this command irrecoverably halts all system processing and I/O activity and restarts the computer system. It is different from the previous option in that the processors are signaled to dump state on the way down. You must have iLO configuration access right to issue this option. BMC This feature has the following options: • Reset BMC passwords: This resets BMC (EFI Shell) passwords. • Reset BMC: This option enables you to issue a BMC reset. Under normal operation, shut down the OS before issuing this command. You must have iLO configuration access right to issue this option. iLO 2 This feature has the following options: • Reset to the iLO 2 default configuration: This option enables you to set all iLO 2 parameters back to their default values. You must have iLO configuration access right to issue this option. • Reset the iLO 2: This option enables you to reset the iLO 2. You can safely perform an iLO 2 reset without affecting the operation of the server. You must have iLO configuration access right to issue this option. Submit Click to submit selections.
