ServeRAID startup (POST) messages
During power-on self-test (POST), the ServeRAID controller compares the stored
configuration information to the configuration that is actually present. If a
discrepancy exists, one or more status messages appear after POST is completed,
but before the operating system starts.
When you press F2 for detailed information, the following register information
appears on the screen.
The controller status codes include the interrupt status port register (ISPR) code,
the basic configuration status (BCS) register code, and the extended configuration
status (ECS) register code.
If no errors occur during POST, the following register information is displayed: ISPR
= EF10, BCS = 0F or 09, and ECS = 00
If an error occurs, see “ISPR register codes” on page 151 for the ISPR error codes
and “BCS and ECS register codes” on page 151.
