Troubleshooting

This section is not intended to be a tutorial on repair and system troubleshooting. It is intended to provide hints for the technician. If the system experiencing problems has just been assembled, a first step should be to check the system against the assembly procedures in the printed “Quick Start User’s Guide,” and the electronic Product Guide that is provided on the CD provided with the system. In addition, a troubleshooting guide is available on the CD and on the support website. http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/

 

Trouble Shooting Information

Problem

Possible Solution

System fails to boot

Make sure the system is plugged into an AC power supply. Power off the system and

 

make sure the cabling, connectors, and components are properly seated. Remove all

 

components except form the minimum required memory and minimum required

 

processors and reboot. If possible check individual components (especially

 

processors and memory) in a known good system.

 

1. Check for processor termination card in the empty secondary processor slot.

 

2. Check for approved memory DIMM modules. See the tested memory list at:

 

http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/

 

3. Make sure the power supply connector is correctly attached to the 24 pin (ATX

 

20pin +4) power connector. Intel Server Chassis use a 24 pin SSI compliant

 

power connector, but most third party chassis use 20 pin ATX power connectors.

 

Refer to the printed “Quick Start Guide” or the electronic product guide also

 

available on the CD that ships with the product. For further information, both of

 

these documents are also available on the Intel Customer Support Website (see

 

URL below).

 

4. If applicable, verify the 3.3v sense (2x5pin) power connector is attached to the

 

power supply signal connector located next to the server board power connector.

 

5. Ensure the power supply being used is at least 800mA of +5V standby current to

 

support WOL and is required for proper operation.
