For example:
From the ILOM web interface, select Remote Control –> Remote Power Control, then select the Power Cycle option from the Host action drop-down list box.
From the local server, press the Power button (approximately, one second) on the front panel of the server to turn the server off, then press the Power button again to turn the server on.
From the ILOM CLI, type: reset /SYS
