Server power features

This topic provides an overview of the server power features.

When the server is connected to a suitable input power source but is not turned on, the operating system does not run, and all core logic except for the service processor (the integrated management module) is shut down; however, the server can respond to requests to the service processor, such as a remote request to turn on the server. The power-on LED flashes and indicates that the server is connected to input power but is not turned on.
