This option provides the ACPI functionality that some operating systems implement. These operating
systems behave differently depending on a short press or long press.
• Reset—Forces the server to warm-boot: CPUs and I/O resources are reset. Using this option
circumvents the graceful shutdown features of the operating system.
• Cold Boot—Immediately removes power from the server. Processors, memory, and I/O resources
lose main power. The server will restart after approximately 6 seconds. Using this option circumvents
the graceful shutdown features of the operating system.

Shared Remote Console (.NET IRC only)
Shared Remote Console allows the connection of multiple sessions on the same server. This feature can
be used for activities such as training and troubleshooting.
The first user to initiate a Remote Console session connects to the server normally and is designated as
the session leader. Any subsequent user who requests Remote Console access initiates an access
request for a satellite client connection. A dialog box for each access request opens on the session leader
desktop, identifying the requester user name and DNS name (if available) or IP address. The session
leader can grant or deny access. If there is no response, permission is denied.
Shared Remote Console does not support passing the session leader designation to another user, or
reconnecting a user after a failure. To allow user access after a failure, restart the Remote Console
session.
During a Shared Remote Console session, the session leader has access to all Remote Console
features, whereas all other users can access only the keyboard and mouse. Satellite clients cannot
control Virtual Power or Virtual Media.
iLO encrypts Shared Remote Console sessions by authenticating the client first, and then the session
leader determines whether to allow new connections.
