e) Click System TD200x to display the list of downloadable files for the server.
b. Check for and correct an incorrect configuration.
If the server is incorrectly configured, a system function can fail to work when you enable it; if you
make an incorrect change to the server configuration, a system function that has been enabled
can stop working.
1) Make sure that all installed hardware and software are supported.
See http://www.lenovo.com/thinkserver to verify that the server supports the installed operating
system, optional devices, and software levels. If any hardware or software component is
not supported, uninstall it to determine whether it is causing the problem. You must remove
nonsupported hardware before you contact Lenovo or an approved warranty service provider
for support.
2) Make sure that the server, operating system, and software are installed and configured
correctly.
Many configuration problems are caused by loose power or signal cables or incorrectly seated
adapters. You might be able to solve the problem by turning off the server, reconnecting cables,
reseating adapters, and turning the server back on. For information about performing the
checkout procedure, see Checkout procedure.
If the problem is associated with a specific function (for example, if a RAID hard disk drive is
marked offline in the RAID array), see the documentation for the associated controller and
management or controlling software to verify that the controller is correctly configured.
Problem determination information is available for many devices such as RAID and network
adapters.
For problems with operating systems or Lenovo software or devices, complete the following
steps.
