How to configure PowerEdge R430 to start up when power is applied
When power is connected to the R430 in its current configuration, a manual press of the front panel power button is necessary for the server to start up. We want to configure the server to start up when power is applied. I cannot find a BIOS or iDRAC setting for this behavior.

In the BIOS, under System Security, AC Power Recovery. Set to ON. If set to LAST and you have the server configured to shutdown in the event of an extended power outage, then the LAST setting was OFF and it won't turn back on. ON will turn it on when power is re-applied, regardless of the last power state. You can also define a delay before powering back on.
You can also access these settings in the OpenManage Server Administrator software.
