HP ProLiant BL30p Server Blade Setup and Installation Guide
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installation and reference information for operation, troubleshooting, and future upgrades for the HP ProLiant BL30p server blade.
System Maintenance Switch
The system maintenance switch (SW1) is an 8-position switch that implements protection and override functions. The default position is off. For the proper system maintenance switch settings, refer to Table 1-3 or refer to the label attached to the server blade.
Powering Up the Server Blade
By default, server blades are set to power up automatically when installed in a server blade enclosure. If you changed this setting, use one of the following methods to power up the server blade:
CAUTION: Be sure that the ProLiant BL30p server blade is installed in a server blade enclosure with enhanced backplane components. Installing a ProLiant BL30p server blade in a server blade enclosure without enhanced backplane components can damage the power subsystem.
• Power button
— A momentary press initiates a power-up request. The system detects if power is available from the power subsystem to power on the server blade. If power is available, then the server blade powers on.
— A long press, 5 or more seconds, initiates a power-up override. The server blade is powered on without detecting available power. CAUTION: Always observe iLO alerts before initiating a power-up override to prevent a hot-plug power supply fault and possible loss of system power. Refer to the HP Integrated Lights-Out User Guide for more information.
NOTE: You may choose to perform a power-up override to power up a server blade and to override the power-up request function when the management modules are not in use.
Be certain that sufficient power is available.
