General checkout The server 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 the server: The system board, Ethernet controller, video controller, RAM, keyboard, mouse (pointing device), diskette drive, serial ports, hard drives, and parallel port. You can also use them to test some external devices. See “Diagnostic programs and error messages” on page 10. Also, if you cannot

Diagnostics This section provides basic troubleshooting information to help you resolve some common problems that might occur with the server. If you cannot locate and correct the problem using the information in this section, refer to “Symptom-to-FRU index” on page 85 for more information. Diagnostic tools overview The following tools are available to help you identify and resolve hardware-related problems: POST beep codes The power-on self-test (POST) generates beep codes and messages to

Sometimes the first error to occur causes additional errors. In this case, the server displays more than one error message. Always follow the suggested action instructions for the first error message that appears. The following sections contain the error codes that might appear in the detailed test log and summary log when running the diagnostic programs. The error code format is as follows: fff-ttt-iii-date-cc-text message where: fff is the three-digit function code that indicates

Starting the diagnostic programs The IBM Enhanced Diagnostics programs will isolate your server hardware from software that you have installed on your hard disk drive. The programs run independently of the operating system, and must be run either from the CD or diskette. This method of testing is generally used when other methods are not accessible or have not been successful in isolating a problem suspected to be hardware related. An IBM Enhanced Diagnostics CD comes with the server. Yo
