v
Follow the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed in the Action column until the problem
is solved.
v
See Chapter 3, “Parts listing, Type 7940 and 7941 servers,” on page 19 to determine which components
are customer replaceable units (CRU) and which components are field replaceable units (FRU).
v
If an action step is preceded by “(Trained service technician only),” that step must be performed only by a
trained service technician.
Symptom
Action
Multiple rows of DIMMs in a
branch are identified as failing.
1. Reseat the DIMMs; then, restart the server.
2. Remove the lowest-numbered DIMM pair of those that are identified and
replace it with an identical pair of known good DIMMs; then, restart the server.
Repeat as necessary. If the failures continue after all identified pairs are
replaced, go to step 4.
3. Return the removed DIMMs, one pair at a time, to their original connectors,
restarting the server after each pair, until a pair fails. Replace each DIMM in the
failed pair with an identical known good DIMM, restarting the server after each
DIMM. Replace the failed DIMM. Repeat step 3 until you have tested all
removed DIMMs.
4. (Trained service technician only) Replace the system board.
Microprocessor problems
v
Follow the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed in the Action column until the problem
is solved.
v
See Chapter 3, “Parts listing, Type 7940 and 7941 servers,” on page 19 to determine which components
are customer replaceable units (CRU) and which components are field replaceable units (FRU).
v
If an action step is preceded by “(Trained service technician only),” that step must be performed only by a
trained service technician.
Symptom
Action
The server emits a continuous
beep during POST, indicating
that the startup (boot)
microprocessor is not working
correctly.
1. Correct any errors that are indicated by the error LEDs (see “System board
error LEDs and the light path button” on page 98).
2. Make sure that the server supports the microprocessor. See Chapter 3, “Parts
listing, Type 7940 and 7941 servers,” on page 19 for a list of supported
microprocessors.
3. (Trained service technician only) Make sure that the microprocessor is seated
correctly.
4. (Trained service technician only) Remove microprocessor 2 and restart the
server.
v
If no beep code occurs, microprocessor 2 might have failed; replace the
microprocessor.
v
If the beep code remains, remove microprocessor 1 and install
microprocessor 2 in the connector for microprocessor 1; then, restart the
server. If no beep code occurs, microprocessor 1 might have failed; replace
the microprocessor.
5. (Trained service technician only) Replace the microprocessor.
6. (Trained service technician only) Replace the system board.
