To start the computer

Depending on the remote computer's hardware configuration, you can use one or more of the following approaches to start your computer. For more information, see your hardware manufacturer's documentation.

  • Use the interface supplied by a service processor, if one is present, to turn on the remote computer.

  • Use the interface supplied by a power switch or uninterruptible power supply (UPS) with remote computer management capabilities, if one is present, to turn on the computer.

  • Use wake-on-LAN functionality by sending a network request that "wakes" the remote computer from sleep mode. This feature must be supported by both the system motherboard and firmware. Follow the instructions provided by your computer and network adapter motherboard manufacturers to enable this functionality.

  • If none of these approaches is appropriate, you can go to the physical location of the target computer and start it by pressing the power button.

Note

  • For general background information on wake-on-LAN functionality, see "Routing and Remote Access" in Related Topics.

Information about functional differences

  • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
