Power-on of Blade Server
There are the following three ways to turn on the power of the CPU blade. Turn on the power of the CPU blade
in any of the three ways after turning on the powers of the display unit and peripherals connected to the CPU
blade.
Important Perform the power-on operation of the CPU blade by either the use of the POWER
switch or the remote power-on after the period of 60 seconds or longer has passed
from the supply of AC power to every power unit (POWER LED on CPU blade is lit
amber). The power-on operation within the period of 60 seconds from the supply of
AC power to every power unit may not turn on the power of the CPU blade. If so, turn
on the power of the CPU blade by using the POWER switch after making sure that
the AC power is supplied to every power unit.
Note
If a power cord on the Blade Enclosure is connected to a power controller including an
uninterruptible power supply (UPS), make sure that the power of the power controller is
turned on.
Tips
When the power is supplied to the CPU blade, the initial diagnosis is executed for about 60
seconds. In this period, the POWER switch is disabled. Power on the CPU blade about 60
seconds immediately after you installed the CPU blade or turned on the power.
