The current power state of the system.System Power
A user with power control access can issue the following options for remote control of
the system power:
System Power Control
• Power Cycle: Turns system power off and on. The delay between off and on is 30
seconds.
• Power On: Turns system power on (it has no effect if power is already on).
• Power Off: Turns system power off. This is equivalent to forcing the system power off
with the front panel power switch. There is no signal sent to the OS to bring the
software down before power is turned off. For proper system shutdown, shutdown
the OS before issuing this command.
• Graceful Shutdown: BMC sends a signal to the OS to shutdown, prior to turning off
system power supported by IPF operating systems.
This option enables you to configure the power restore policy. The power restore policy
determines how the system behaves when AC power returns after an AC power loss.
You must have iLO configuration access right to use this option.
System Power Restore
Settings
• Restore Previous Power State: The power is restored to the state that was in effect
when AC was removed or lost.
• Automatically Power On: The system is powered up after AC is applied.
• Remain Powered Off: The system stays powered off after AC is applied. Pushing the
system power switch or choosing the Power On option under System Power Control
is required to power on the system.
This feature has the following options:System Reset
• Reset through RST signal: This option causes the system to reset through the RST signal.
Under normal operation, shut down the OS before issuing this command. Execution
of this command irrecoverably halts all system processing and I/O activity and restarts
the computer system. The effect of this command is very similar to cycling the system
power - the OS is not notified, no dump is taken on the way down, and so on. You
must have power control access right to issue this option.
• Reset through INIT or TOC signal: This option causes the system to be reset through
the INIT or Transfer of Control (TOC) signal. Under normal operation, shut down the
OS before issuing this command. Execution of this command irrecoverably halts all
system processing and I/O activity and restarts the computer system. It is different
from the previous option in that the processors are signaled to dump state on the way
down. You must have iLO configuration access right to issue this option.
This feature has the following options:BMC
• Reset BMC passwords: This resets BMC (EFI Shell) passwords.
• Reset BMC: This option enables you to issue a BMC reset. Under normal operation,
shut down the OS before issuing this command. You must have iLO configuration
access right to issue this option.
