Turning on the blade workstation After you connect the blade workstation to power through the BladeCenter unit, the blade workstation can start in any of the following ways: v You can press the power-control button on the front of the blade workstation (behind the control panel door, see "Blade workstation controls and LEDs" on page 4) to start the blade workstation. Notes: 1. Wait until the power-on LED on the blade workstation flashes slowly before pressing the power-control button. While the service processor in the management module is initializing, the power-on LED does not flash, and the power-control button on the blade workstation does not respond. 2. While the blade workstation is starting, the power-on LED on the front of the blade workstation is lit. See "Blade workstation controls and LEDs" on page 4 for the power-on LED states. v If a power failure occurs, the BladeCenter unit and then the blade workstation can start automatically when power is restored, if the blade workstation is configured through the management module to do so. v You can turn on the blade workstation remotely using the management module. v If the blade workstation is connected to power (the power-on LED is flashing slowly), the operating system supports the Wake on LAN® feature, and the Wake on LAN feature has not been disabled through the management module, the Wake on LAN feature can turn on the blade workstation. v The thin client can turn on the blade workstation remotely. Turning off the blade workstation When you turn off the blade workstation, it is still connected to power through the BladeCenter unit. The blade workstation can respond to requests from the service processor, such as a remote request to turn on the blade workstation. To remove all power from the blade workstation, you must remove it from the BladeCenter unit. Shut down the operating system before you turn off the blade workstation. See the operating-system documentation for information about shutting down the operating system. The blade workstation can be turned off in any of the following ways: v You can press the power-control button on the blade workstation (behind the control panel door, see "Blade workstation controls and LEDs" on page 4). This starts an orderly shutdown of the operating system, if this feature is supported by the operating system. v If the operating system stops functioning, you can press and hold the power-control button for more than 4 seconds to turn off the blade workstation. v The management module can turn off the blade workstation. - If the system is not operating correctly, the management module will automatically turn off the blade workstation. - Through the management-module Web interface, you can also configure the management module to turn off the blade workstation. For additional information, see the IBM BladeCenter Management Module User's Guide. v The thin client can turn off the blade workstation. 6 BladeCenter HC10 Type 7996: Problem Determination and Service Guide

v
If
a
power
failure
occurs,
the
BladeCenter
unit
and
then
the
blade
workstation
can
start

is
restored,
if
the
blade
workstation
is
configured
through
the
management
module
to
do
so.
v
You
can
turn
on
the
blade
workstation
remotely
using
the
management
module.
v
If
the
blade
workstation
is
connected
to
power
(the
power-on
LED
is
flashing
slowly),
the
operating
system
supports
the
Wake
on
LAN
®
feature,
and
the
Wake
on
LAN
feature
has
not
been
disabled
through
