4. Apply Power to Server

1. Start with the highest-numbered group. Switch on its circuit breaker or plug the

power shelf AC power cords into the designated AC receptacles.

2. On the service side of the enclosure, check that the fans are operating by placing

your hand over the exhaust grill. The fans should be turning, and you should hear

air circulating through the enclosure.

After a few seconds, if the fans do not operate, shut the system down quickly. See

Power Is Applied to Enclosure But Fans Are Not Turning on page D-6.

3. Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 for all remaining enclosures without power shelves.

Work in descending order of group number, ending with group 01.

4. During system startup, status LEDs on the various enclosures and CRUs light

during a series of power-on self-tests (POSTs), which can take up to 10 minutes.

All LEDs are lit briefly during POSTs, but only the green power-on LEDs should

remain lit after the POSTs finish.

Before you start the system, ensure that POSTs have finished successfully. If the

green power-on LED does not light or other LEDs remain lit, see Appendix D,

Troubleshooting.
