Diagnostic
programs,
error
codes
and
messages
The
server
diagnostic
programs
are
stored
in
electrically
erasable
programmable
read-only
memory
(EEPROM)
on
the
system
board
that
is
shared
with
the
BIOS
code.
These
programs
are
the
primary
method
of
testing
the
major
components
of
your
server.
Diagnostic
error
messages
indicate
that
a
problem
exists.
They
are
not
intended
to
be
used
to
identify
a
failing
part.
Troubleshooting
and
servicing
of
complex
problems
that
are
indicated
by
error
messages
should
be
performed
by
trained
service
personnel.
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.
Error
codes
that
might
be
displayed
are
listed
at
“Diagnostic
error
codes”
on
page
116.
Notes:
1.
Depending
on
the
server
configuration,
some
of
the
error
codes
might
not
appear
when
you
run
the
diagnostic
programs.
2.
If
diagnostic
error
codes
appear
that
are
not
listed
in
the
tables,
make
sure
that
the
server
has
the
latest
levels
of
BIOS,
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter
II
SlimLine,
and
ServeRAID
code
installed.
