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.

the following conditions:

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