Chapter 9 Operation and Maintenance

9.2.3 Software Troubleshooting

This section explains software-related troubleshooting. For troubles during OS installation or system

operation, refer to the following contents.

Trouble at a ServerStart startup

After a boot from PRIMERGY Startup Disc, nothing is displayed on the
screen.

This situation may occur if the hard disk drive still contains the previous information. In that case, this

situation may occur even when insert Windows Server 2003 installation disc.

In such a situation, physically format the hard disk drive to delete the previous information and start up

ServerStart.

For physical formatting for hard disk drive, refer to the manual in the Array Controller Document &

Tool CD.

For the manual of the SAS RAID Ctrl to be used, refer to "2.3.2 Notes on Configuring RAID" (

pg.42)

Error messages during installation

The following error messages may appear during installation using ServerStart. Observe the corrective

action against the relevant error.

"WzDiskAdmin: System Error! ......................, Last Error: The device is not
ready." appears

Optional SCSI/SAS devices (e.g., hard disk cabinet, DAT unit) may be connected.

Disconnect the optional SCSI/SAS devices and perform installation again. Connect the optional devices

after the installation completes.

"Operating System not found" appears when the system restarts from the
CD/DVD after file copy

The following factor may be possibly root cause.

• The Active flag is selected.

"Missing Operating System" appears during installation

The installation partition size may be too large. Specify the installation partition size correctly. For

details on the installation partition size, refer to "2.3.1 Installation Partition Size" (

pg.42).

"Error 1920. Service (PXE Services) failed to start" appears during
preconfigured installation

The system installed with the preconfigured settings (PXE server) may not be connected to the network.

Check the LAN cable connection and click [Rerun].
