5.2.6 Machine alarm
If the machine alarms in startup or utilization process, please refer to the following
processes for disposal:
1. If the phenomenon occurs after you plugged some external board, it is
suggested that you pull off this device and start to test. If it is normal, it shows that your
external board is incompatible with the machine. It is suggested not to use it any more;
If it is unsolved, please go on referring to the following steps.
2. Determine the orientation of the alarm sound simply:
● If the alarm sound is from the front of the case generally followed the abnormal
change of the fault indicator, there is possibility of abnormal fan or hard disk module;
●If the alarm sound is from the rear of the case, please pay attention to check
whether a redundant power supply is configured or not and whether there is an
abnormal status lamp of the power supply module or a module without power cable or
not (when power alarms, the shield switch can be pressed to stop alarm);
● If the alarm sound is in the case, the alarm may be from mainboard , RAID card
or hard disk back plate. If it is also accompanied by no display or no power faults, there
is comparatively large possibility of bad mainboard. You can try to pull or plug RAM or
clear CMOS; If the starting self-check is normal and it alarms when testing RAID card
with display of abnormal array information, there is comparatively large possibility of
RAID card alarm. There is maybe array abnormality; When the hard disk back plate
alarms, there is always abnormal status lamp of the hard disk on the front panel which
can be also used to analyze in coordination.
3. After understanding the basic information, please feedback the detail alarm
information to Inspur technical support personnel as soon as possible. We will make
further analysis and judgment and help you to solve the problem as soon as possible.
