Initial Power On

Each system’s input voltage is specified in the Specifications chapter.

The power cords should be standard 3-wire AC power cords including a safety ground and rated for 15A or higher.

Important

The system platform will automatically power on when AC power is applied. There is no power system. Check all boards, power supplies, and fan tray modules for proper insertion before plugging in a power cable.

  1. Plug in the first power cable.

  2. Plug in the second power cable.

  3. Wait for the system upload process.

    Important

    It may take up to five minutes to turn on the system. If the System Status LED shows amber after five minutes, unplug the system and call your Mellanox representative for assistance.

  4. Check the System Status LEDs and confirm that all of the LEDs show status lights consistent with normal operation (initially flashing, and then moving to a steady color) as shown below. For more information, refer to LED Notifications.

Important

After inserting a power cable and confirming the green System Status LED light is on, make sure that the Fan Status LED shows green. If the Fan Status LED is not green, unplug the power connection and check that the fan module is inserted properly and that the mating connector of the fan unit is free of any dirt and/or obstacles. If no obstacles were found and the problem persists, call your Mellanox representative for assistance.
