This section provides basic troubleshooting information to help you resolve some
common problems that might occur with the server.
If you cannot locate and correct the problem using the information in this section,
refer to “Chapter . Symptom-to-FRU index,” on page 215 for more information.
Diagnostic tools overview
The following tools are available to help you identify and resolve hardware-related
problems:
• POST beep codes, error messages, and error logs
The power-on self-test (POST) generates beep codes and messages to indicate
successful test completion or the detection of a problem. See “POST” on page 12
for more information.
• Diagnostic programs and error messages
The server diagnostic programs are stored in upgradable read-only memory
(ROM) on the system board. These programs are the primary method of testing
the major components of the server. See “Diagnostic programs and error
messages” on page 24 for more information.
• Light path diagnostics
Your server has light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to help you identify problems with
server components. These LEDs are part of the light-path diagnostics that are
built into the server. By following the path of lights, you can quickly identify the
type of system error that occurred. See “Light path diagnostics” on page 27 for
more information.
• Error symptoms
These charts list problem symptoms, along with suggested steps to correct the
problems. See the “Diagnosing errors” on page 34 for more information.
