7-16 Troubleshooting
Fail to power off the server:
† Is the POWER switch enabled?
→
Restart the server and start the BIOS setup utility.
<Menu to check: [Security]
→
[Switch Inhibit]
→
[Enabled]>
POST fails to complete:
† Is the DIMM installed?
→
At least one DIMM is required for operation.
† Is the memory size large?
→
The memory check may take a time if the memory size is large. Wait for a while.
† Did you perform any keyboard or mouse operation immediately after you started the
server?
→
If you perform any keyboard or mouse operation immediately after start-up, POST
may accidentally detect a keyboard controller error and stops proceeding. In such
a case, restart the server once again. Do not perform any keyboard or mouse
operation until the BIOS start-up message appears when you restart the server.
† Does the server have appropriate memory boards or PCI card?
→
Operation of the server with unauthorized devices is not guaranteed.
Server reboots while running the SCSI Select utility:
†
Have you modified the Setup settings?
→
From [Server] - [Monitoring Configuration] - [Option ROM Scan Monitoring] of
Setup, select “Disabled.” If [Option ROM Scan Monitoring] is enabled, the
system may reboot while using the SCSI
Select utility. Change back the setting
after you finish using the utility.
Fail to access to internal or external devices:
† Are cables properly connected?
→
Make sure that the interface cables and power cord are properly connected. Also
make sure that the cables are connected in the correct order.
† Is that device compliant with NEC Express5800/ft series?
→
Operation of the server with unauthorized devices is not guaranteed.
† Is the power-on order correct?
→
When the server has any external devices connected, power on the external
devices first, then the server.
