Power Off the Switch

The switch does not have a central power switch, and each power supply does not have its own power switch either. Power can be controlled through Oracle ILOM if needed. Otherwise, removing both power cords will power off the switch and disconnect it from facility power.

1. Locate the power cords at the rear of the switch.

   See Switch Rear Components.

2. Lower the retaining wire securing the power cords.

   In this illustration, AC1 is the left power cord, and AC0 is the right power cord.

   
   
3. Grasp a power cord and remove it with a slow wiggling motion.
   
4. Remove the other power cord with a slow wiggling motion.

   After removing both power cords, the switch will power off.

5. Consider your next step.
   • If you powered off the switch to replace the switch chassis, go to Remove the Switch.
   • If you are powering off the switch to connect the data cables to the switch, go to Install a Data Cable.
   • If you powered off the switch as part of another service task, return to that task now.
