System Troubleshooting

5.2 AlphaServer 1000A Subsystem

The AlphaServer 1000A Rackmount Owner's Guide provides the instructions on completing the following tasks or resolving these particular problems:

Confirming that EISA modules or memory modules are properly configured

Running a diagnostic test of the entire system, showing its status, or terminating the testing

Checking the startup display when you turn on the system

What to do if:

The power supply has shut down

Startup tests do not complete

The system cannot boot the operating system

The operating system reports errors, is hung, or crashes

The system cannot access a mass storage device

Storage devices are missing from the show device display

The system indicates network problems, an EISA module is not configured, or a PCI module is unseen by the system

The monitor or the terminal is not working

The keyboard and mouse are not working

The system repeatedly shuts down after 10 seconds

The system does not see or cannot access RAID drives

The Flash ROM is corrupted and the system cannot access console mode

5.3Alarm Indicator Panel

The alarm indicator panel (see Figure 3-1) uses visual and audio alarm indicators to display the status of the IP Platform, including the ISA bus expansion chassis and the -48 Vdc power inverter or user alarm inputs. The alarm indicator panel displays alarms as long as it can communicate with the alarm control module in the AlphaServer 1000A, or until its backup batteries become fully discharged.

Refer to Section 3.3.1 for a description of the alarm indicator panel alarms and status displays. Refer to Section 3.3.1.1 for the procedure for replacing the batteries in the alarm indicator panel.
