Your Model May Vary (YMMV)
However, according to this:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/8286-41A/p8haj/p8haj_controlpanel.htm
A flashing green power light means the unit has power but it is in standby
mode. Basically, it is powered off! This will have a drastic effect on
the behavior of TCP/IP (to say the least).
Did you ever do the functions I suggested to get it to display your
console type?
Using the console service functions (65+21)

Yes, it is sad that
IBM i 7.2>Basic system operations>Starting and stopping the
system>Starting the system>
Assumes that the system is already started.
Then again, this is not an AS/400. It is a Power system running IBM i.
One cannot assume that IBM i is the only OS on it and that there is only
one lpar of IBM i. Therefore you have to go into the "Hardware
Information Center"

Expand "Power Systems"
Figure out what genre you have, Power 6 for example. And verify that by
expanding it and seeing if your model is in it.
Even if you go through all this, you will not find "How to start this BAMF
up".
Normally one attaches a Lan Console, or an HMC, to one of these and uses
that to start it up.
So the trick is, you expand the section "Working with consoles, terminals,
and interfaces for POWER... processor-based systems" where ... is the
genre of Power system you are running. That's about the only time you
touch the buttons. (Yes, I'm back to that...) This is where I went to
get the explanation of the light.
