Shut down the operating system before you turn off the blade server. See the operating-system
documentation for information about shutting down the operating system.
You can turn off the blade server in one of the following ways.
v Turn off the blade server by pressing the power-control button for at least 5 seconds.
The power-control button is on the blade server behind the control panel door. See “Blade server
control panel buttons and LEDs” on page 11 for the location.
Note: The power-control LED can remain on solidly for up to 1 minute after you push the
power-control button. After you turn off the blade server, wait until the power-control LED is blinking
slowly before you press the power-control button to turn on the blade server again.
If the operating system stops functioning, press and hold the power-control button for more than 5
seconds to force the blade server to turn off.
v Use the management module to turn off the blade server.
The power-control LED can remain on solidly for up to 1 minute after you initiate the power-off
process. After you turn off the blade server, wait until the power-control LED is blinking slowly before
you initiate the power-on process from the AMM to turn on the blade server again.
Use the management-module Web interface to configure the management module to turn off the blade
server if the system is not operating correctly.
For additional information, see the online documentation or the User's Guide for the management
module.
