HP Cluster Platform Server and Workstation Overview

The front panel power button on the HP ProLiant DL585, as shown in Figure 3-44, toggles between
On and Standby. If you press the Power button on an HP ProLiant DL585 to power down the
server, the LED changes from green to amber, indicating Standby mode. In Standby mode, the
server removes power from most electronics and drives. Portions of the power supply and some
internal circuitry remain active. To completely remove all power from either server, disconnect
the power cord first from the AC outlet and then from the server.
To remove the ProLiant DL585 from the rack, follow these steps:
1. Power down the server.
2. Disconnect all of the remaining cables on the server rear panel, including cables extending
from external connectors on expansion boards. Make note of which Ethernet and interconnect
cables are connected to which ports.
3. Loosen the thumbscrews securing the server to the rack, as shown in Figure 3-46.
