Connect the Power Cords

Use this procedure to connect power cords to the server. When the power cords are connected, the server will be in standby power mode. The following figure shows the location of the AC power connectors.

Callout
Description
1
Power supply 0 AC inlet connector with cable clip
2
Power supply 1 AC inlet connector with cable clip

Note -  A two-CPU system will operate from low-line 100 to 127 VAC or high-line 200 to 240 VAC sources. A four-CPU system will only operate from high-line 200 to 240 VAC sources.
  1. Connect two grounded server power cords to grounded electrical outlets.
  2. Connect the two server power cords to the AC connectors on the back panel of the server [1and 2 in the previous figure] and secure each cord using the connector's cable clip.

    When power is connected, the server boots into standby power mode:

    • The SP OK indicator [2] flashes while the SP is starting, and the system OK indicator [1] remains off until the SP is ready.

    • After a few minutes, the system OK indicator slowly flashes the standby blink pattern (0.1 seconds on, 2.9 seconds off), indicating that the SP (and Oracle ILOM) is ready for use. Note that the server is not initialized or fully powered on at this point.
