POST beep codes:
POST generates beep codes to
indicate successful completion or the detection of an error.
Ÿ
One beep indicates successful completion of POST.
Ÿ
More than one beep indicates that POST detected an
error, see “Beep symptoms” on page 152
Error messages:
Error messages indicate that a
problem exists; they are not intended to be used to identify
a failing part.
Hardware error messages that occur can be text, numeric,
or both. Messages generated by the software generally
are text messages, but they also can be numeric.
POST error messages and beep codes:
POST
error messages and beep codes occur during startup when
POST finds a problem with the hardware or detects a
change in the hardware configuration, see
“Symptom-to-FRU index” on page 152.
Diagnostic error messages:
Diagnostic error
messages occur when a test finds a problem with the
server hardware. These error messages are alphanumeric
and they are saved in the Test Log.
Software-generated error messages:
These
messages occur if a problem or conflict is found by an
application program, the operating system, or both.
Messages are generally text messages, but they also can
be numeric. For information about these error messages,
refer to the documentation that comes with the software.
Option diskettes:
An optional device or adapter
might come with an Option Diskette. Option Diskettes
usually contain option-specific diagnostic test programs or
configuration files.
If the optional device or adapter comes with an Option
Diskette, follow the instructions that come with the option.
Different instructions apply depending on whether the
Option Diskette is startable or not.
Diagnostic test programs
This section includes useful information about navigating
through the diagnostic test programs, as well as
procedures for starting and stopping them. These
programs are designed to test the IBM Netfinity 5000. If
you want to test a non-IBM product, refer to the
information that comes with that product.
You can start the diagnostic test programs from the
Startup panel, when the message
Press F2 for
Diagnostics
appears.
