Error Manager

Every time the server is powered on, it performs a series of diagnostic tests that checks firmware and assemblies to ensure that the server is properly functioning. This is referred to as Power–On Self–Test or POST. If POST detects an error, it either displays an error message or emits a beeping sounds. For more information on POST beep codes, go to page 94.

In instances of a non-critical POST failure, an error message describing the problem appears onscreen. These text messages are displayed in normal video (white text on black background). It shows the error details, and sometimes even a possible action to resolve the error. These POST errors are recorded by the Error Manager.
