one is available).
4. Make sure that:
• The power cords are correctly connected to the server and to a working
electrical outlet.
• The type of memory that is installed is correct.
• The DIMMs are fully seated.
• The LEDs on the power supply do not indicate a problem.
• The microprocessors are installed in the correct sequence.

a. Operator information panel connector
b. Power supplies
6. Replace the components listed in step 5 one at a time, in the order shown,
restarting the server each time.
7. If you just installed an optional device, remove it, and restart the server. If
the server now starts, you might have installed more devices than the power
supply supports.
