Power-On Self-Test diagnostics

The Power-On Self-Test (POST) is a system diagnostic program (stored
in the BIOS (Basic Input/Output)) that runs each time the 1005r server
starts. The function of the POST is to test system components and
display status messages.

To run the POST

1 Power up the CallPilot server and monitor.
Result: After a few seconds, the POST begins to run.
After the memory test, various screen prompts and messages
appear. The screen prompts can be accompanied by a single beep.
2 Observe the screen for any error messages and listen for POST
beep codes. When the POST is complete, the server beeps once.
If the server halts before the POST is finished, the server emits a
beep code indicating that a fatal system error requires immediate
attention. For more information, see "Interpreting POST
diagnostics" on page 30.
If the POST can display a message on the monitor, the server emits
two beeps as the message appears.
Record the message that appears on the monitor and the beep
code that you hear. This information is useful if you need assistance
from your technical support representative.
