    3. Prepare the server for service using Oracle ILOM. If you have determined that the hardware fault requires service (physical access to the server), use Oracle ILOM to take the server offline, activate the Locate LED, and power off the server.
  • Page 27 This procedure uses the basic troubleshooting steps described in “Basic Troubleshooting Process” on page Use this procedure to troubleshoot hardware faults with the Oracle ILOM web interface and, if necessary, prepare the server for service. This procedure provides one basic approach to troubleshooting hardware faults. It Note - uses a combination of the Oracle ILOM web interface and command-line interface (CLI).
  • Page 28 Troubleshoot Hardware Faults Using the Oracle ILOM Web Interface In the Status section of the Summary Information screen, identify the server subsystem that requires service. In the above example, the Status screen shows that the Processor subsystem requires service. This indicates that a hardware component within the subsystem is in a fault state.
  • Page 29: Troubleshooting And Diagnostic Information

    To prepare the server for service, see “Preparing for Service”. After servicing the component, you might need to clear the fault in Oracle ILOM. For more information, refer the service procedure for the component. Service the component.

    By default, the SP console (SER MGT) port sends serial port output from the server. Using Oracle ILOM, you can specify that the host console (COM1) be assigned as owner of the server serial port output. This feature is useful for Windows kernel debugging, as it enables you to view non-ASCII character traffic from the host console.
