for information on how to install the unit in a rack.
Connecting and powering on the unit
Attach a power cord to the power supply in your server, and then attach the power cord to a grounded AC
power outlet. See
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/unified_
computing/ucs/c/hw/C220/install/spec.html#wp1070378
The power button of the unit is located in the top left-hand corner of the front panel.
If this is the first time that the power switch has been turned on after connecting the power cable, the system
will perform a Self Test and the unit will automatically restart. This is expected behavior. The system will be
operational after it has booted up a second time. The first boot will take approximately 2 minutes.
To verify the power status look at the Power Status LED (see
