Use this procedure to connect power cords to the server. When the power cords are connected, the server will be in standby power mode.
Note - By default, only a two-CPU system will operate from low-line (100 to 127 Volt) AC sources. The system requires high-line (200 to 240 Volt) AC sources to turn on main power of a four-CPU system.
When power is connected, the server boots into standby power mode. The SP OK/Fault LED flashes while Oracle ILOM is starting, and the main Power/OK LED remains off until Oracle ILOM is ready for system log in (Front Panel Indicators and Power Button). After a few minutes, the main Power/OK LED slowly flashes the standby pattern, indicating the service processor (SP) is working. Note that the server is not initialized or powered on yet.
