2.10.3 Intermittent problems
Identify intermittent problem symptoms and corrective actions.
•
Follow the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed in the Action column until the problem is solved.
•
See Chapter 3 , “ Parts listing ,” on page 197 to determine which components are CRUs and which components are
FRUs.
•
If an action step is preceded by “(Trained service technician only),” that step must be performed only by a trained
service technician.
Symptom Action
A problem occurs only
occasionally and is difficult to
diagnose.
1. Make sure that:
− When the blade server is turned on, air is flowing from the rear of
the blade server at the blower grill. If there is no airflow, the blower
is not working.
This causes the blade server to overheat and shut down.
−
Ensure that the self configuring SCSI device (SCSD) bus and devices
are configured correctly.
2. Check the management-module event log for errors
