How to Power On/off Oracle Exadata Machine

<<Back to Exadata Main Page How to Power On/off Oracle Exadata Machine Oracle Exadata machines can be powered on/off either by pressing the power button on front of the server or by logging in to the ILOM interface. Powering on servers using  button on front of the server The power on sequence is as follows. 1. Start Rack, including switches  Note:- Ensure the switches have had power applied for a few minutes to complete power on  configuration before starting Exadata Storage Servers 2.Start Exadata Storage Servers  Note:- Ensure all Exadata Storage Servers complete the boot process before starting the   database servers 3. Start Database Servers Powering On Servers Remotely using ILOM The ILOM can be accessed using the Web console, the command-line interface (CLI), IPMI, or SNMP. For example, to apply power to server dm01cel01 using IPMI, where dm01cel01-ilom is the host name of the ILOM for the server to be powered on, run the
