Use this information to turn off the blade appliance.
When you turn off the blade appliance, it
is still connected to power through the BladeCenter® unit.
The blade appliance can respond to requests from the BladeCenter management
module, such as a remote request to turn on the blade appliance. To
remove all power from the blade appliance, you must remove it from
the BladeCenter unit.
The blade appliance
can be turned off in any of the following ways:
- You can press the power-control button to perform a
controlled shut down the blade appliance (see Blade appliance controls and LEDs).
- If the blade appliance stops functioning, you can press
and hold the power-control button for more than 4 seconds to force
the blade appliance to turn off.
- The management module can turn off the blade
server through the advanced-management-module Web interface. For additional
information, see the IBM® BladeCenter Advanced
Management Module User's Guide or go to http://www.ibm.com/systems/management/ for
