How to troubleshoot power issues on my NEC Express5800 Server?
If your NEC Server won't power on, start by checking the power cord connection to both the server and the power outlet or UPS. Ensure the power cord meets the Blade Enclosure power specifications and isn't damaged. Verify that the connected power outlet's circuit breaker is on. If using a UPS, confirm it's powered and functioning correctly. Also, ensure the CPU blade is correctly installed, and if a mezzanine card is installed, check the connection between the relevant switch module and the CPU blade. After applying AC power (POWER LED lights amber), wait at least 60 seconds before turning on the Blade Enclosure.
