# Graceful Startup of an Openshift 4 Cluster
This SOP should be followed in the following scenarios:
- Starting up an Openshift 4 cluster.
## Steps
Prequisite steps:
### Start the physical nodes :
- Production uses `adhoc-ipmi-poweron.yml` playbook to stop/start/restart nodes :
```
ansible-playbook playbooks/adhoc-ipmi-poweron.yml -l ocp-ci
```
- Staging uses `adhoc-seamicro-poweron.yml` playbook to start the powered off seamicro compute nodes
```
ansible-playbook playbooks/adhoc-seamicro-poweron.yml # This will prompt for nodes, just use `ocp-ci` as group
```
### Once the nodes have been started they must be uncordoned if appropriate
```
oc get nodes
