POST error codes

When you turn on the server, it performs a series of tests to check the operation of
the server components and some optional devices in the server. This series of tests
is called the power-on self-test, or POST.

If a power-on password is set, you must type the password and press Enter, when
you are prompted, for POST to run.

If POST is completed without detecting any problems, the server startup is
completed.

If POST detects a problem, an error message is sent to the POST event log.

The following table describes the POST error codes and suggested actions to
correct the detected problems. These errors can appear as severe, warning, or
informational.

v

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

v

See the

Parts Listingsection in the Hardware Maintenance Manual to determine which components are

customer replaceable units (CRU) and which components are field replaceable units (FRU).

v

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