Overview
Power Specifications
Power specifications are based on servers with one or two power supplies installed.
If an overload triggers the power supply overload protection, the server immediately powers off.
To reset the power supply unit, follow these steps:
1. Disconnect the power cord.
2. Contact an HP support representative to determine what caused the overload.
3. Reconnect the power cord.
4. Reboot the server.
If an overload occurs twice, there is an undetected short circuit somewhere.
When you use the front panel power button to power off the server, power consumption falls
below the low power consumption but does not reach zero. To reach zero power consumption in
OFF mode, unplug the server or use a power block with a switch.
Power Consumption and Cooling
The power consumptions listed in the following table are valid for a standard configuration as
shipped (one 1 GHz processor, 6 GB of memory, 600W power supply, three hard disk drives, one
graphics card, one LVD SCSI card).

Overview
Front Panel
The front panel on the rx2600 and zx6000 has the following features:
■Power LED is green when the power is on, or the power button is pushed in. If the power is
on and the button is pushed in, the light stays on even after the server is powered off. When
the button is released, the green light turns off.
■Power Butter turns the server power on and off.
■LAN LED indicates communication over the Gigabit or Management LAN.
■System and Diagnostic LEDs identify errors on zx6000 workstations with no iLO MP card.
■Locator LED and Button (rack-mount configuration only) identify the rack position of the
server.
■Disk Activity LEDs on each hard drive turn green when the disk is accessed.
■e-buzzer icon indicates the position of the internal speaker.

Overview
Rear Panel
The rear panel on the rx2600 and zx6000 has the following features:
■Connectors are shaped to go in only one way to prevent improper cable attachment.
■Ports are labeled for easy identification.
■iLO MP ports are positioned above (rack-mount) or to the right of (pedestal) standard
connectors (optional on zx6000 workstation).
■LAN LEDs provide additional information:
❏Four Gigabit LAN LEDs
❏Two System Management 10/100 LAN LEDs
❏Four iLO MP LAN LEDs (optional on zx6000 workstation)
■Monitor Connector on graphics card. zx6000 workstations may include graphics cards with
single or multiple monitor support.
■Locator LED (rack-mount configuration only) identifies the rack position of the server.
Rear Panel Connectors
CAUTION: Do not connect a SCSI terminator to the SCSI connector on the back of the server; the
connector is automatically terminated. If an external SCSI device is the last device connected externally to
the server, you must connect a SCSI terminator to that device.
