Troubleshooting 71

Before removing the components, be sure to determine the minimum configuration for each component and
follow all guidelines in the server user guide.
Always use the recommended minimum configuration above before removing any processors. If you are
unable to isolate the issue with the configuration above, you will then remove all but one of the processors.

CAUTION:

Before removing or replacing any processors, be sure to follow the guidelines

provided in "Performing processor procedures in the troubleshooting process (on page

70

)."

Failure to follow the recommended guidelines can cause damage to the system board, requiring

replacement of the system board.

the appropriate server model, and then click the Troubleshoot a Problem link on the product page.

Loose connections

Action:

Be sure all power cords are securely connected.

Be sure all cables are properly aligned and securely connected for all external and internal
components.

Remove and check all data and power cables for damage. Be sure no cables have bent pins or
damaged connectors.

If a fixed cable tray is available for the server, be sure the cords and cables connected to the server are
routed correctly through the tray.

Be sure each device is properly seated. Avoid bending or flexing circuit boards when reseating
components.

If a device has latches, be sure they are completely closed and locked.

Check any interlock or interconnect LEDs that might indicate a component is not connected properly.

If issues continue to occur, remove and reinstall each device, checking the connectors and sockets for

bent pins or other damage.

Server health LEDs

Some workstation blades have an internal health LED and an external health LED, while other workstation
blades have a single system health LED. The system health LED provides the same functionality as the two

separate internal and external health LEDs. Depending on the model, the internal health LED and external
health LED may either appear solid or they may flash. Both conditions represent the same symptom.
For the location of workstation blade LEDs and information on their statuses, see the workstation blade

documentation on the HP website (

).
