Table 5-4 Advanced Entry Class Troubleshooting

Action

Symptom/Condition

Step

System event logging has stopped due to a presumed BMC
malfunction (system health is steady green, internal health is steady
green, external health is steady green, and power is steady green).
1. Examine the console messages for any EFI errors or warnings

about BMC operation or communications.

2. Examine the BMC heartbeat LED; if it is not flashing green,

replace the core I/O board FRU. See

“Management Subsystem ”

(page 170)

for information.

3. Test the operation of the BMC by toggling the UID locator switch

LED on the front panel. The blue LED is turned on/off by the
BMC when the switch is toggled

The problem is fixed when the BMC heartbeat LED is flashing green,
and the system event log resumes logging.

Cannot read the system event
log from the system console.

Front panel LEDs indicate that the server power is turned on, and
it is either booting or running the OS ( system health is steady green,
internal health is steady green, external health is steady green, and
power is steady green).
Nothing may be logged for this condition.
1. Reset the system using one of the following methods:

a. Use the iLO 2 MP to reset the system:

• From the command menu of text interface via SSH or

Telnet, use the TC command.

• From the web GUI, Reset through INIT or TOC signal

from the Power & Reset menu on the Virtual Devices tab.

For more information see the HP Integrity iLO 2 MP Operations
Guide
.

b. Use a tool (such as a ACX-10 Torx screwdriver or appropriately

size allen wrench) to depress the INIT button on the front
panel to start system initialization.

2. Reboot the OS.
3. Obtain the system hardware status dump for root cause analysis.
4. Examine the iLO 2 MP logs for entries related to processors,

processor power modules (PPMs), shared memory, and core I/O
devices. See

“Errors and Reading Error Logs” (page 154)

for

information.

The problem is fixed when the root cause has been determined, and
the OS is running normally.

OS is non-responsive (hung).
