Turn
on
the
server.
If
the
problem
remains,
suspect
the
following
components
in
the
following
order:
a.
Power
backplane
b.
I/O
board
c.
Memory
card
d.
Microprocessor

If
the
problem
is
solved
when
you
remove
an
adapter
from
the
server
but
the
problem
recurs
when
you
reinstall
the
same
adapter,
suspect
the
adapter;
if
the
problem
recurs
when
you
replace
the
adapter
with
a
different
one,
suspect
the
PCI-X
board.
If
you
suspect
a
networking
problem
and
the
server
passes
all
the
system
tests,
suspect
a
network
cabling
problem
that
is
external
to
the
server.

If
so,
what

You
can
solve

problems
by
comparing
the
configuration
and
software
setups
between
working
and
nonworking
servers.
When

consider
them

only
if
all
