IMPORTANT: Reboot the server after completing each numbered step. If the error condition continues, proceed with the next step.

To troubleshoot processor-related error codes:

1.Bring the server to base configuration by removing all components that are not required by the server to complete POST. This process can include removing all:

Expansion boards

Processors, except the processor installed in socket 1

IMPORTANT: Processor socket 1 and PPM slot 1 must be populated at all times or the server does not function properly.

PPMs, except the PPM installed in slot 1

DIMMs, except the first bank

Hard drives

Peripheral devices

2.Reseat the processor in socket 1.

3.Reseat the remaining processors, rebooting after each installation to identify any failed processors.

IMPORTANT: Populate the processors in the following order: 1, 2, 4, 3.

IMPORTANT: Always install a PPM when you install a processor. The system fails to boot if the PPM is missing.

4.Replace the processor in socket 1.

5.Replace the processor board, if applicable.

6.Replace the system board.

IMPORTANT: If replacing the system board or clearing NVRAM, you must re-enter the server serial number through RBSU ("Re-entering the server serial number and product ID" on page 57).
