9 Common Faults, Diagnosis and Troubleshooting

This chapter introduces the commonserver faults, as well as corresponding diagnosis and
troubleshooting suggestions.

9.1Hardware Problems

Power-on failure at startup

Description:

After pressing the power button, the LED (power status LED, HDD status LED)

on server’s front control panel is off. Meanwhile, no KVM (display) output is displayed, and
server chassis fans do not rotate.

Suggestions:

Check the power supply situation: If the power module LED is on, it indicates normal

power supply. If the power module LED is off or red, please check whether the power supply
is normal, and whether the power cord is connected well.

If the power supply is normal, insert the power module again, and then power on for

verification.

If there is a machine and a power module of the same type, you could change the power

module to test whether there is a power module fault.

If the instructions above do not resolve the problem, please contact Inspur customer

service.

No display after power on

Description:

After pressing the power button, the power LEDon server’s front control panel

is on, the chassis fans rotate normally, but there’s no output on the display.

Suggestions:

Firstly check whether the monitor is powered up normally.

If the monitor is powered up normally, check whether it is connected normally with the

server’s VGA port.

Test on another monitor.

If there is no output on the new monitor, login to the BMC Web interface. Open BMC

remote KVM to check whether there isoutput on the monitor. If there is normal output, it
indicates the VGA port may be abnormal, please contact Inspur customer service.

If above operations could not resolve the problem, please contact Inspur customer service.

Status LED on front panel is abnormal
