What to Check
What to Do
Check for system failures:
•
Be sure that all expansion
boards, drives, and
processors are firmly
seated and that all latches
are firmly closed.
•
Be sure that all system
cables are properly
connected and not
damaged.
Refer to “Loose Connections” in
Chapter 2.
If your server includes one or
more Processor Power
Modules (PPMs), check each
PPM.
Refer to “Processor Power
Modules” in Chapter 2 for
information on testing PPMs.
Be sure that there are no
processor problems.
Refer to “Processors” in
Chapter 2.
Be sure that there are no
memory problems.
Refer to “Memory” in Chapter 2.
For configure-to-order servers:
•
Check the initial
factory-installed
configuration.
•
Note any changes that
have been made to the
original system.
•
Note configuration
changes made before or
after completing the
operating system
installation.
Refer to your server-specific user
documentation.
