Server diagnostic steps
This section covers the steps to take in order to diagnose a problem quickly.
To effectively troubleshoot a problem, HP recommends that you start with the first flowchart in this section,
"Start diagnosis flowchart (on page
93
)," and follow the appropriate diagnostic path. If the other
flowcharts do not provide a troubleshooting solution, follow the diagnostic steps in "General diagnosis
flowchart (on page
94
)." The General diagnosis flowchart is a generic troubleshooting process to be used
when the problem is not server-specific or is not easily categorized into the other flowcharts.
IMPORTANT:
This guide provides information for multiple servers. Some information may not apply to the
server you are troubleshooting. Refer to the server documentation for information on procedures, hardware
options, software tools, and operating systems supported by the server.
WARNING: To avoid potential problems, ALWAYS read the warnings and cautionary
information in the server documentation before removing, replacing, reseating, or
modifying system components.
