3 Hard Disk Status Light: Each of the hot-swap drives has a Hard Disk Drive Status light. When the amber light for a hard disk drive is lit continuously, the drive has failed. When the light flashes slowly (one flash per second), the drive is being rebuilt. When the light flashes rapidly (three flashes per second), the controller is identifying the drive.

9 Power Control Button: Press this button to manually turn the server on or off.

Caution The Power Control button on the front of the server does not turn off the electrical current supplied to the server. The server also might have more than one power cord. To remove all electrical current from the server, ensure that all power cords are disconnected from the power source.

The server can be activated in several ways:

- You can turn the server on by pressing the Power Control button on the front of the server.
- If the server is activated and a power failure occurs, the server will start automatically if the automatic-restart-after-power-failure feature is selected in the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
- The server can also be powered on by the Advanced Remote Management Controller.

The server can be deactivated as follows:

- You can turn the server off by pressing the Power Control button on the front of the server. Pressing the Power Control button
starts an orderly shutdown of the operating system, if this feature is supported by the operating system, and places the server in standby mode.

Note After turning off the server, wait at least five seconds before pressing the Power Control button to power on the server again.

- Pressing and holding the Power Control button causes an immediate shutdown of the server, and places the server in standby mode. This feature can be used if the operating system hangs.

- Disconnecting the server power cord from the electrical outlet will shut off all power to the server.

Note Wait about 15 seconds after disconnecting the power cord for your system to stop running. Watch for the System Power light on the information LED panel to stop flashing.

10 Reset Button: Press this button to reset the system and run the power-on self-test (POST).

11 Information LED Panel: The lights on this panel give status information for your server. See "Information LED Panel" for more information.
