Option problems
Power problems
Symptom
Suggested action
An option that was just
installed does not work.
Make sure that:
•
The option is designed for the blade server.
•
You followed the installation instructions that come with the option.
•
The option is installed correctly.
•
You have not loosened any other installed options or cables.
An option that used to
work does not work now.
Make sure that all of the option hardware and cable connections are secure.
If the option comes with its own test instructions, use those instructions to test
the option.
Symptom
Suggested action
The blade server does not
turn on.
1.
Make sure that:
a.
The power LED on the front of the SBCE unit is lit.
b.
The LEDs on all the power modules are lit.
c.
If the blade server or attached storage expansion unit is in blade bay 7
through 14 in the SBCE unit. Ensure power modules are installed in all
four power bays.
d.
The power-on LED on the blade server control panel is flashing slowly.
•
If the power LED is flashing rapidly and continues to do so, the
blade server is not communicating with the management module;
reseat the blade server and go to step 3.
•
If the power LED is off, either the blade bay is not receiving power,
the blade server is defective, or the LED information panel is loose
or defective.
e.
Local power control for the blade server is enabled (use the
management-module Web interface to verify), or the blade server was
instructed through the management module to turn on.
2.
If you just installed an option in the blade server, remove it, and restart the
blade server. If the blade server now turns on, troubleshoot the option (see
the documentation that comes with the option for information).
3.
Try another blade server in the blade bay; if it works, replace the faulty blade
server.
