Turning on the server

Approximately 20 seconds after the server is connected to ac power, one or more fans might start running to provide cooling and the power-on button LED starts blinking quickly. Approximately one to three minutes after the server is connected to ac power, the power-control button becomes active and the blink of the power-on button LED turns slow.

You can turn on the server by pressing the power-control button.

You also can turn on the server through the Wake on LAN feature if supported by the operating system. You can send a request through the Wake on LAN feature to turn on the server remotely.

Besides, if a power failure occurs while the server is turned on, the server will restart automatically when power is restored.
