Standby Power and Logging in to the MP
Housekeeping power (also known as standby power) is generated as soon as AC power is applied to the server.
Because the MP uses standby power, it is possible to login to the server MP even when the power switch is in
the OFF position. The power switch is a DC power switch that controls +48V DC.
NOTE Connection to the MP is performed through the core I/O card installed in the server.
1. On the front of the server, a solid green Standby Power, and a solid green MP Present light will
illuminate after about 30 seconds.

• After 30 seconds has elapsed the flashing amber BPS LED for each BPS becomes a flashing green
LED
