Power On the Server
If you want to power on the server remotely using an Ethernet connection and Oracle ILOM,
see “Log In to Oracle ILOM Using a Local Serial Connection” on page 81 for instructions.
Power On the Server
Use the following procedure to power on the server locally using a serial connection to
Oracle ILOM. For more information about powering on the server using other methods, see
“Controlling System Power” on page 97.
For the location of the status indicators (LEDs) on the server front panel, see “Front Panel
Status Indicators, Connectors, and Drives” on page 29.
1.
Connect the grounded power cords to two separate power sources.
The server is equipped with two power supplies. Connect the power supplies to separate power
sources to provide power redundancy. The server can operate with one power source; however,
using only one power source eliminates redundancy.
When the power cords are connected to the server's AC inlets and power sources, the following
actions occur:
■
The green AC OK power supply LEDs light.
■
While the Oracle ILOM SP initializes, the green SP OK LED flashes rapidly.
■
Once the Oracle ILOM SP has fully initialized, the SP OK LED is steady on and the green
Power/OK LED flashes slowly, indicating that the host is in Standby power mode.
In Standby power mode, the server is not initialized or powered on.
2.
Press Enter on the terminal device to create a connection between the serial
console and the Oracle ILOM SP.
The Oracle ILOM Login prompt appears.
3.
Log in to Oracle ILOM using the command-line interface (CLI); use the root user
account and the password changeme:
host-name login: root
Password: changeme
The Oracle ILOM CLI prompt (->) appears.
Caution - Do not apply full power to the server until you are ready to perform a fresh
installation of an operating system. At this point, power is supplied only to the SP and the
power supply fans.
