Checkpoint
codes
(trained
service
technicians
only)
A
checkpoint
code
identifies
the
check
that
was
occurring
when
the
server
stopped;
it
does
not
provide
error
codes
or
suggest
replacement
components.
Checkpoint
codes
are
shown
on
the
checkpoint
display,
which
is
on
the
system
board.
By
using
the
checkpoint
display,
you
do
not
have
to
wait
for
the
video
to
initialize
each
time
you
restart
the
server.
There
are
two
types
of
checkpoint
codes:
complex
programmable
logic
device
(CPLD)
hardware
checkpoint
codes
and
BIOS
checkpoint
codes.
The
BIOS
checkpoint
codes
might
change
when
the
BIOS
code
is
updated.
For
a
list
of
checkpoint
codes
for
the
xSeries
100
server,
