The power-on self-test (POST) generates beep codes and messages to indicate
successful test completion or the detection of a problem. See "POST" on page 12
for more information.
The server/workstation diagnostic programs are stored in upgradable read-only
memory (ROM) on the system board. These programs are the primary method
of testing the major components of your server/workstation. See "Diagnostic
programs and error messages" on page 15 for more information.
The Light Path Diagnostic is used to quickly identify system errors.
