The Netserver supports certain types of system activity, which is used as wake-up
events from these sleep states. These wake-up events can be generated from the
power button, LAN activity, and scheduled events.
NOTE The HP Netserver’s power management policies (transitions
between various power states) and the user options are specific
to the particular ACPI-compliant NOS installed on the
Netserver. If your NOS is ACPI-compliant, refer to the power
management features in the NOS instructions provided for
more information.
The HP Netserver’s power button can be configured to initiate a graceful
shutdown or "soft off" of the NOS rather than an immediate shutdown of the
power supply. The power button configurations are dependent on the user
interface provided by the ACPI-compliant NOS. While power management is
under the control of the ACPI-compliant NOS, the HP Netserver’s power button is
capable of an override in case of a non-responsive NOS.
NOTE The HP Netserver power button will force a power down
without waiting for the NOS to gracefully shut down the
Netserver, if the power button is pressed and held for more
than four seconds.
CAUTION If the power button override is used, there is a strong
possibility of corrupted or lost data.
