3. Plug the other end of the power cables into a grounded electrical outlet or a separate power source such as an uninterrupted
power supply (UPS) or a power distribution unit (PDU).

Figure 67. Turn On the Storage System
When the SCv2000/SCv2020 storage system is powered on, a delay occurs while the storage system prepares to start up.
During the first minute, the only indication that the storage system is powered on are the LEDs on the storage controllers. After
the 1-minute delay, the fans and LEDs turn on to indicate that the storage controllers are starting up.
NOTE: If the LEDs on a storage controller do not turn on, the storage controller may not be fully seated in the
storage system chassis. If this issue occurs, press both power buttons to turn off the storage system, reseat the
storage controller, and press both power buttons again to turn on the storage system.
5. Wait until the green diagnostic LEDs on the back of each storage controller match the pattern shown in the following figure.
This LED pattern indicates that a storage controller has started up successfully.
NOTE: It could take up to 5 minutes for a storage controller to completely start up.
