Basic and Advanced Troubleshooting Tables

The following troubleshooting tables are designed for use by both trained and untrained support
personnel. They should be the first tool used to determine the symptom(s) 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 2 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, the

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
by a reference to the corresponding subsection of this chapter for further information.
NOTE:
In the table which follows, the Unit Identifier (UID)/locator LED has not been included,
because it is not used directly for troubleshooting rx2660 servers. However, indirectly, it can
provide useful system information. When the UID is blue, this is an indication that the BMC is
working.
Similarly, the INIT Button, which is a momentary switch with pinhole access, that is used to cause
a system INIT or Transfer of Control (ToC), is not discussed in the following tables either. It basically
is like a system reset, preserving the entire memory image, so that you can obtain a crash dump
and receive OS error information. This button can be used to recover a hung system, and to obtain
information useful for debugging -- it is less harsh than a power reset.
