Diagnostic
programs

system
diagnostic

are
provided
in

of
your
server.
See

programs
and
error
messages”
on
page
64.
v
Light

POST
error
logs
When
you
turn
on
the
server,
it
performs
a
series
of
tests
to
check
the
operation
of
server
components
and
some
of
the
options
installed
in
the
server.
This
series
of
tests
is
called
the
power-on
self-test,
or
POST.
If
POST
finishes
without
detecting
any
problems,
a
single
beep
sounds,
and
the
first
screen
of
your
operating
system
or
application
program
appears.
If
POST
detects
a
problem,
more
than
one
beep
sounds,
and
an
error
message
appears
on
your
screen.
See
“Beep
symptoms”
on
page
74
and
“POST
error
codes”
on
page
78
for
more
information.
Notes:
1.
If
you
have
a
power-on
password
or
administrator
password
set,
you
must
type
the
password
and
press
Enter,
when
prompted,
before
POST
will
continue.
2.
A
single
problem
might
cause
several
error
messages.
When
this
occurs,
work
to
correct
the
cause
of
the
first
error
message.
After
you
correct
the
cause
of
the
first
error
message,
the
other
error
messages
usually
will
not
occur
the
next
time
you
run
the
test.
The
POST
error
log
contains
the
three
most
recent
error
codes
and
messages
that
the
system
generated
during
POST.
The
system-error
log
or
base-board
management
controller
(BMC)
log
contains
all
messages
issued
during
POST
and
all
system
status
messages
from
the
service
processor.
You
can
view
the
contents
of
the
system-error
log
and
BMC
log
from
the
Configuration/Setup
Utility
program
or
from
the
diagnostic
programs.
