Diagnostic programs and error messages
Real Time Diagnostics tests the major components of the BladeCenter unit,
including the management modules, I/O modules, removable-media drives, and
the blade servers, while the operating system is running. Real Time Diagnostics
can be plugged into an existing IBM Director environment or installed without
IBM Director present. For documentation and download information for Real
Time Diagnostics, see http://www.ibm.com/systems/management/. For more
information about diagnostic programs and error messages, see the
Problem
Determination and Service Guide for your blade server.
The IBM Dynamic System Analysis (DSA) diagnostic programs are the primary
method of testing the major components of the blade server. The diagnostic
programs are available in the preboot environment by pressing F2 during the
boot process. The Preboot DSA diagnostic programs are stored in integrated USB
memory and collect and analyze system information to aid in diagnosing blade
server problems. The diagnostic programs collect the following information
about the blade server:
– System configuration
– Network interfaces and settings
– Installed hardware
– Light path diagnostics status
– Vital product data, firmware, and BIOS configuration
– Storage drive health
– Baseboard Management Controller logs
The diagnostic programs create a merged log that includes events from all
collected logs. The information is collected into a file that you can send to the
IBM Support Center. Additionally, you can view the blade server information
locally through a generated text report file. You can also copy the log to
removable media and view the log from a Web browser.
Note: If you are unable to find the system-error logs in the blade server
firmware code, view the system-event log in the BladeCenter management
module.
v
Light path diagnostics
Use light path diagnostics LEDs on the system board to diagnose system errors.
If the system-error LED on the system LED panel on the front or rear of the
BladeCenter unit is lit, one or more error LEDs on the BladeCenter unit
components also might be lit. These LEDs help identify the cause of the
problem. Blade server error LEDs are described in the
Problem Determination and
Service Guide for your blade server.
