System Power Button
The power button is used to turn the system unit on and off. When you turn your
workstation off, the operating system executes an automatic shutdown -h command. This
prevents any damage to programs and data on your system disk. Turning the power switch
back on again automatically boots up the HP-UX 10.20, 11.0 or 11i operating system if
your system has been configured to auto boot.
