Solaris

"init 0" shuts down and halts the OS, leaving the power on. If you then remove the power cords, it remembers power state "on" - when plugged in again it will run POST then boot.
If you turn off the power by "init 5" or by an ALOM command), then the remembered power state is "off" - and so it will be when plugged in again.

Hi

We acctually solved that issue with our server!

Thank you very much

Cheers!

@proof_enrique.......thank you for telling us that you've fixed your problem, however, please post what your remedy was.

This forum exists to build a knowledge base that is extremely useful to future readers who are seeking answers to problems. So simply posting that you've fixed it without saying how you fixed it isn't helpful. This Unix community exists to help each other; both novices and experts.

Don't worry if you think your answer is silly because we can all make silly mistakes. Having a thread with no conclusion doesn't help future readers who may be experiencing the same issue as you.

Thanks.

Yeah that´s true!

The main idea it was provided by MadeInGermany.....Thanks a lot!

The problem was that we usually "clone" V440 from a other server with V240 / v440 images ( for cloning).

After cloning the server, we should send an "INIT 0" to shuts down and halt the OS, and of course, leaving the power on. Therefore we have another system that supply power to servers, and sometimes we have to disconnect them for troubleshooting.

In one case, we found some problems on a V440 server ( just cloned ) and we did some HW test, and after that we commanded a "shutdown" or "power off".......not allowing us to power on with only cabling.

So, thanks to all for helping!!

Regards!
