1.Ensure that the cabling is installed correctly:

If there are still no lit LEDs, do the following:

2.Power off the HP Server and unplug the power cord/s from the power source. Remove the left side cover.

NOTE

The HP Server tc2110 has an integrated NIC so skip the following steps unless a PCI NIC

 

is installed in the server.

 

 

CAUTION Always wear an antistatic wrist guard when working inside the HP Server.

3.Locate the NIC and reseat it in its slot.

4.Replace the covers; plug in the power cord/s to a power source, and power on the HP Server.

5.If the problem persists, perform previous step 2 and 3 but move the NIC to another slot.

6.Replace the covers; plug in the power cord/s to a power source, and power on the HP Server.
