The server blade should come up to standby power. The server blade is at standby power if the blade
power LED is amber.
Server blade power states
The server blade has three power states: standby power, full power, and off. Install the server blade into
the enclosure to achieve the standby power state. Server blades are set to power on to standby power
when installed in a server blade enclosure. Verify the power state by viewing the LEDs on the front panel,
and using Table 5.
