Disable or Enable the Host Power-On Delay

Use the /SP/policy HOST_POWER_ON_DELAY property to cause the server to wait for a short time before powering on automatically. The delay is a random interval of one to five seconds. Delaying the server power-on helps minimize current surges on the main power source. This power-on delay is important when multiple servers in racks power on after a power outage.

  • At the Oracle ILOM prompt, type:
    -> set /SP/policy HOST_POWER_ON_DELAY=value
    

    where value can be:

    enabled

    Causes the server to wait for a short time before powering on automatically.

    disabled

    (Default) Server powers on automatically without a delay.
