vFollow the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed in the Action column until the problem is solved.

vSee the Hardware Maintenance Manual to determine which components are customer replaceable units (CRUs) and which components are field replaceable units (FRUs).

vIf an action step is preceded by “(Trained service technician only),” that step must be performed only by a trained service technician.

		2. If the CNFG LED is not lit, one of the following
		conditions might be present:
		v The server did not start and a failing DIMM LED
		is lit:
		a. Check for a PFA log event in the
		system-event log.
		b. Reseat the DIMM.
		c. Move the DIMM to a different slot or replace
		the DIMM.
		d. (Trained service technician only) Replace
		the system board.
		v The server started, the failing DIMM is disabled,
		and the LED is lit:
		a. If the LEDs are lit by two DIMMs, check the
		system-event log for a PFA event on one of
		the DIMMs, and then replace that DIMM.
		Otherwise, replace both DIMMs.
		b. If the LED is lit by only one DIMM, replace
		that DIMM.
		c. Re-enable the DIMM, using the Setup Utility.
