Basic and advanced troubleshooting tables

The following troubleshooting tables are designed for use by both trained and untrained support
personnel. The tables are the first tools used to determine the symptoms or condition of a suspect server.
Be aware that the state of the front panel LEDs can be viewed locally or remotely (using the vfp
command from the iLO 3 MP).
The tables are designed to cover troubleshooting symptoms from AC power-on up to booting the
operating system (OS), specifically in Steps 1-5. In most cases begin with Step 1 in Basic low end
troubleshooting, sequencing through the table steps to locate the symptom/condition most descriptive of
your current server status; this becomes the first step in your troubleshooting procedure. Where
appropriate, an action or actions prescribed in the "Action" column of Basic low end troubleshooting is
followed by a reference to the corresponding subsection of this chapter for further information.
