Error symptoms

You can use the error symptom table to find solutions to problems that have definite symptoms.

If you cannot find the problem in the error symptom charts, go to “Starting the diagnostic programs” on page 26 to test the server.

If you have just added new software or a new option and your server is not working, do the following before using the error symptom charts:

vRemove the software or device that you just added.

vRun the diagnostic tests to determine if your server is running correctly.

vReinstall the new software or new device.

In the following table, if the entry in the FRU/action column is a suggested action, perform that action; if it is the name of a component, reseat the component and replace it if necessary. The most likely cause of the symptom is listed first.
