POWER7 information
You can use the Hardware Management Console (HMC) to start the system or logical partition after the required cables are installed and the power cables are connected to a power source.
For instructions on working with the HMC, see Managing the Hardware Management Console. For instructions on starting a logical partition, see Logical partitioning. For instructions on starting the system, see Powering on the managed system.
Progress indicators, also referred to as checkpoints, appear on the control panel display while the system is being started. When the power-on light on the control panel stops blinking and remains on, the system power is on.
