BIOS Error Beep Codes
Errors may occur during the Power-On Self-Test (POST) routines, which are performed each
time the system is powered on.
Nonfatal errors are those which, in most cases, allow the system to continue the boot-up process.
The error messages normally appear on the screen.
Fatal errors do not allow the system to continue the boot-up procedure. If a fatal error occurs,
consult with your system manufacturer about possible repairs.
OS Reinstallation and Recovery
Caution
Recovering the OS using the hard drive-based recovery or the OS
recovery USB erases the contents of your hard disk. Before recovering the OS, back
up any files you want to keep.
The RMC-8356 includes a preinstalled OS from the factory. The RMC-8356 also includes
two methods of restoring/reinstalling the OS to your system.
•
Hard drive-based recovery stores a factory backup on a separate portion of your hard drive,
allowing you to restore your server without additional media.
