Table 25 Basic low end troubleshooting (continued)
ActionConditionStep
A warning or critical failure has been detected
and logged after server powers on (system health
is flashing amber, internal health is off /solid
green, external health is flashing amber, and
power is steady green). Examine each power
supply LED. If not solid green, replace power
supply (see “Troubleshooting the power subsystem
” (page 88)for details).
The preceding problem is fixed when iLO 3 MP
logs are read, and the front panel LED states are
as follows: system health is off, internal health is
off/ steady green, external health is steady green,
and power is steady green.
System health LED is flashing amber.2b
A fatal fault has been detected and logged after
server powers on (system health is flashing red,
internal health is off/steady green, external health
is flashing amber, and power is steady green). 1.
Examine each power supply LED. If not solid
green, replace power supply (see “Troubleshooting
the power subsystem ” (page 88)for details).
The preceding problem is fixed when iLO 3 MP
logs are read, and the front panel LED states are
as follows: system health is off, internal health is
off/steady green, external health is steady green,
power is steady green.
2. Check diagnostic LED panel to identify failed
or faulty internal CRU (See “Troubleshooting tools”
(page 75) for more details).
The preceding problem is fixed when a redundant,
internal CRU is replaced, iLO 3 MP logs are read,
and the front panel LED states are as follows:
system health is off, internal health is steady green,
external health is steady green, and power is
steady green.
System health LED is flashing red.3
Front panel LEDs indicate that the server is either
booting or running system firmware, or is booting
or running the OS (system health is off/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. The most common reasons for this are console
cabling issues, console configuration issues, etc.
Check these issues first.
2. Examine iLO 3 MP heartbeat LED. 3. If off, then
iLO 3 MP is not operational; if flashing amber,
then ROM error exists. 4. Reset iLO 3 MP, by using
the pinhole reset button on the rear panel of the
server. 5. If no change, replace the system board
(See “Troubleshooting the iLO 3 MP subsystem”
(page 92) for details.).
The preceding problem is fixed when iLO 3 MP
heartbeat LED and the system health led are steady
green.
Cannot see iLO 3 MP prompt on system console --
server power is off/on.
