HP Blade Server bh7800 Power

HP Blade Server Initial Power-Up

Before applying power to the bh7800, verify that the terminal (a PC with a terminal emulator installed will

suffice) is connected to the management blade and turned on.

Power Cords Supplied

Each bh7800 power supply uses a C19 type receptacle. There are multiple power cord options available for the

bh7800. Table 3-1 contains a list of the power cords approved to ship with the bh7800. The geographic

location typically determines which power cords ship with the server.

Powering up the bh7800 consists of powering up the chassis and powering up the server blades. These two

power on operations occur nearly simultaneously.

NOTE To ensure a successful power-up, make sure that all slots are covered so that air flow integrity

is maintained.

Chassis Power-Up

CAUTION Before applying power to the bh7800, the power receptacle must be verified by a qualified HP

representative or a qualified electrician to ensure proper grounding and line voltage level is

present.

Step 1. Plug in the power cords between the bh7800 power supplies and the power outlets. The bh7800

chassis will immediately begin to power-up and the monitor will display power-up self test data.

The green LED on each power supply should be ON.

Step 2. Look for the status LED on the management blade slot for the front LCD panel (slot F9). When

chassis power-up has been successfully accomplished, the management blade status LED will be

green. You can now log on to the management blade to perform chassis and blade configuration.
