Action
This is a typical RAID beep. One of the following condition is present:
• One cable or both cables from the hard drives is disconnected
or improperly connected.
• One or both drives is faulty.
In special situations, this symptom indicates that the NVRAM
contents and the drive configuration were lost. The data is still there,
but the system beeps and shows that both drives are faulty. Perform
a data recovery by configuring the drives as indicated in the 703t
Server Maintenance and Diagnostics guide, without initializing the
logical drives.
This symptom typically indicates a RAID trouble: one of the hard
drives is in critical condition. Rebuild the drive as soon as you get
to the operating system; refer to the 703t Server Maintenance and
Diagnostics guide. If the drive rebuilding does not work, then the
drive is defective and must be replaced.
This symptom can indicate a multimedia card failure or a software
failure.
Check for multimedia card errors on the diagnostic screen that
appears immediately after the system boots. If the multimedia card
functions properly, then investigate the software area; check the
Event Viewer for information on software failures.
This is a critical message that appears when the ELAN or CLAN
cable is not plugged in.
Ensure that the ELAN and CLAN cables are properly plugged in.
