When the Enclosure Does Not Start
This section provides systematic instructions on what to try and where to go for help
for the most common problems encountered during initial startup of the ProLiant BL
e-Class enclosure. If you are having specific server blade trouble, see the “When the
Server Blade Does Not Start” section in this appendix.
If the enclosure does not start:
1.
Check the enclosure for the normal power up sequence:
a.
The front panel enclosure health LED and rear panel fan health, Integrated
Administrator health, and power supply LEDs turn to solid green.
b.
The power supply fans and main fans start up.
2.
Be sure that the enclosure is plugged into a working power outlet.
3.
Be sure the power sources are working properly by checking the power LED on
each power supply in the rear of the enclosure.
For information regarding power sources for ProLiant servers, refer to the
“Power Source” section in the
HP Servers Troubleshooting Guide
on the
Documentation CD that ships with the enclosure.
For information about the location and function of all enclosure LEDs, see
Appendix E, “LEDs and Switches.”
4.
Be sure the power supplies are working properly by checking the fault LED on
the power supplies in the back of the enclosure.
5.
Be sure that the enclosure has power by checking the enclosure power LED on
the rear of the enclosure.
6.
Be sure the fans are functioning by checking the fan health LED on the rear panel
of the enclosure.
7.
Be sure the center wall assembly is delivering power to the enclosure by
checking if the enclosure health LED on the front of the enclosure is illuminated.
