Sun StorEdge 5310 NAS Troubleshooting Guide • December 2004

Note –

A corded PS/2 keyboard (not a wireless one) must be plugged into the

keyboard/mouse connector at the back of the server. When the front panel is locked,
the lights on the keyboard flash, but the server is still fully functional.

Server Beeps at Power On or When Booting

The server indicates problems with “beep codes” during Power-On Self Test (POST)
in the event there is no displayed video. A complete list of beep codes is given in
“POST Error Beep Codes” on page 2-27.

Note –

The RAID card also will beep when a disk drive has failed. Check the system

log to help isolate the problem.

The following beep codes identify system events during POST in case video fails to
display.
