POST Messages
Power-on self-test (POST) messages
If you receive an error message during the power-on self-test
(POST), completing the steps outlined in this section might enable
you to resolve the problem.
Note: If you have just added, removed, or changed the location of a
device and you receive an error message, you must
reconfigure your server. Follow the procedure described in
“Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 39.
If the procedure in “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility
program” on page 39 does not eliminate the error message,
then proceed with the following instructions.
1. Write down all error code numbers and descriptions that appear
on the screen as you start your server. (Note that a single
problem can cause several error messages to appear. When you
correct the cause of the first error message, the other error
messages probably will not appear on the screen the next time
that you turn on your server.)
2. If you have set a power-on password and have the password
prompt set to On or Dual, a password prompt appears. If you
have set both power-on and administrator passwords, you can
type either of the passwords at the password prompt.
However, if you think you might need to change any settings in
the Configuration/Setup Utility program, you must type your
administrator password at the password prompt. If you type
your power-on password, you will be able to view the error
codes and error code descriptions that are displayed on the
POST Startup Errors screen; you will also be able to view
limited information in the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
However, you will not be able to change any settings.
3. In the case of most errors, the Configuration/Setup Utility
program starts automatically so that you can attempt to identify
and correct the problem. When the Configuration/Setup Utility
program starts, a screen titled POST Startup Errors appears.
(Note that the POST Startup Errors screen does not appear
immediately. You must wait approximately one minute.) If the
POST Startup Errors screen does not appear, proceed to step 6
on page 168.
