Power Modes
The Sun Fire X2270 M2 Server has two power modes, full-power mode and standby-power
mode.
In full-power mode, power is supplied to all the server components (for example, CPU, hard
drives, fans). Full-power mode is the normal operational mode for the server. When the server
is in full-power mode, the server boots and the operating system (OS) functions. Full-power
mode is achieved by pressing the power button on the front of the server when the server is in
standby power mode. When the server is in full-power mode, the Power On LED is on
continuously (does not blink).
Standby-power mode is the non-operating mode. That is, the server is in a low-power or
powered-down state and is not capable of booting and starting the OS. In standby–power mode,
minimum power is supplied only to the components that are required for lights-out
management (LOM), such as the service processor (SP). Standby-power mode is achieved by
connecting the server to an AC supply using the AC power cords. To sustain standby-power
mode, do not press the front panel power button. You can also achieve standby-power mode by
powering o the server from full-power mode using one of the methods described in the
section,
“How to Power O the Server” on page 28. When the server is in standby power mode
the Power OK LED on the front panel blinks.
