Emergency Power-Off Procedure
Emergency Power-Off Procedure
If possible, HP recommends that the system be in a low power state before you
remove power to the system. However, in emergency situations, you might need to
quickly remove AC power from a system. Sites equipped with an emergency power-off
(EPO) switch can use it to remove AC power from your entire system. For more
information on the EPO system, see the NonStop NS-Series Planning Guide.
For sites that are not equipped with an EPO switch, switch off the circuit breakers to
the power cords connected to the cabinets and peripherals. For more information, refer
to Section 14, Power Failures: Preparation and Recovery.

Fans Are Not Turning
If the fans do not start turning a few seconds after you power on the server, check that
the AC power cords and component power cords are properly connected.
If the green LED lights are lit, but the fans are not turning, you must power off the
system immediately. See in Powering Off a System on page 15-17. Contact your
service provider.
