Progress Codes - IBM BladeCenter JS21 Types 8844 Service Manual

Progress codes enable users and service personnel to know what the system is
doing as it initializes. These codes are not intended to be error indicators, but in
some cases a system could hang at one of the progress codes without displaying
an eight-digit error code. Any actions associated with the progress codes should be
taken only if the system hangs.

Progress codes

The following table lists the progress codes that may be displayed by the POST,
and the suggested actions to take if the system hangs on the progress code.
In the following progress codes, X can be any number or letter.
Notes:
1. For checkpoints with no associated location code, see "Light path diagnostics"
2. For checkpoints with location codes, see "Location codes" on page 66.
3. For problems persisting after completing the suggested actions, see "Checkout
4. For eight-digit codes not listed here, see "Checkout procedure" on page 106.
