Basic and Advanced Troubleshooting Tables
The following troubleshooting tables are designed for use by both trained and untrained support
personnel. They should be the first tool used to determine the symptom(s) or condition of a
suspect server. Be aware that the state of the front panel LEDs can be viewed either locally, or
remotely by using the vfp command from the iLO 2 MP.
The tables are designed to cover troubleshooting symptoms from ac power on up to booting the
operating system (OS), specifically in Steps 1-5. In most cases, the
Table 5-2 identifies the step
number in Table 5-3 where troubleshooting should begin. Alternatively, you can skip Table 5-2 ,
and start with Step 1 in Table 5-3 , sequencing through the table steps to locate the
symptom/condition most descriptive of your current server status; this will become the first step
in your troubleshooting procedure. Where appropriate, an action or actions prescribed in the
“Action” column of
Table 5-3 will be followed by a reference to a corresponding subsection of
this chapter for further information.
