performs
basic
functionality
tests
on
each
installed
microprocessor,
and
each
microprocessor
performs
its
own
built-in-self
test
(BIST).

you
suspect
that
an
installed
microprocessor
is
failing,
complete
the
following
steps:
1.
Shut
down

the
server.
2.
Restart
the
server.
3.
Watch
the
monitor
to

reports
any
microprocessor
errors.
