Checkout

 

procedure

 

The

 

checkout

 

procedure

 

is

 

the

 

sequence

 

of

 

tasks

 

that

 

you

 

should

 

follow

 

to

 

diagnose

 

a

 

problem

 

in

 

the

 

server.

 

About

 

the

 

checkout

 

procedure

 

Before

 

performing

 

the

 

checkout

 

procedure

 

for

 

diagnosing

 

hardware

 

problems,

 

review

 

the

 

following

 

information:

 

v

   

Read

 

the

 

safety

 

information

 

beginning

 

on

 

page

 

vii.

 

v

   

The

 

diagnostics

 

programs

 

provide

 

the

 

primary

 

methods

 

of

 

testing

 

the

 

major

 

components

 

of

 

the

 

server,

 

for

 

example,

 

the

 

I/O

 

board,

 

Ethernet

 

controller,

 

keyboard,

 

mouse

 

(pointing

 

device),

 

serial

 

ports,

 

and

 

hard

 

disk

 

drives.

 

You

 

can

 

also

 

use

 

them

 

to

 

test

 

some

 

external

 

devices.

 

If

 

you

 

are

 

not

 

sure

 

whether

 

a

 

problem

 

is

 

caused

 

by

 

the

 

hardware

 

or

 

by

 

the

 

software,

 

you

 

can

 

use

 

the

 

diagnostics

 

programs

 

to

 

confirm

 

that

 

the

 

hardware

 

is

 

working

 

correctly.

 

v

   

When

 

you

 

run

 

the

 

diagnostics

 

programs,

 

a

 

single

 

problem

 

might

 

cause

 

several

 

error

 

messages.

 

If

 

you

 

receive

 

several

 

error

 

messages,

 

correct

 

the

 

cause

 

of

 

the

 

first

 

error

 

message.

 

The

 

other

 

error

 

messages

 

might

 

not

 

occur

 

the

 

next

 

time

 

you

 

run

 

the

 

diagnostics

 

programs.

 

v

   

Before

 

running

 

the

 

diagnostics

 

programs,

 

you

 

must

 

determine

 

whether

 

the

 

failing

 

server

 

is

 

part

 

of

 

a

 

shared

 

hard

 

disk

 

drive

 

cluster

 

(two

 

or

 

more

 

servers

 

sharing

 

external

 

storage

 

devices).

 

If

 

it

 

is

 

part

 

of

 

a

 

cluster,

 

you

 

can

 

run

 

all

 

diagnostics

 

programs

 

except

 

the

 

ones

 

that

 

test

 

the

 

storage

 

unit

 

(that

 

is,

 

a

 

hard

 

disk

 

drive

 

in

 

the

 

storage

 

unit)

 

or

 

the

 

storage

 

adapter

 

that

 

is

 

attached

 

to

 

the

 

storage

 

unit.

 

The

 

failing

 

server

 

might

 

be

 

part

 

of

 

a

 

cluster

 

if

 

any

 

of

 

the

 

following

 

conditions

 

is

 

true:

 

   

You

 

have

 

identified

 

the

 

failing

 

server

 

as

 

part

 

of

 

a

 

cluster

 

(two

 

or

 

more

 

servers

 

sharing

 

external

 

storage

 

devices).

 

   

One

 

or

 

more

 

external

 

storage

 

units

 

are

 

attached

 

to

 

the

 

failing

 

server

 

and

 

at

 

least

 

one

 

of

 

the

 

attached

 

storage

 

units

 

is

 

also

 

attached

 

to

 

another

 

server

 

or

 

unidentifiable

 

device.

 

   

One

 

or

 

more

 

servers

 

are

 

located

 

near

 

the

 

failing

 

server.

Important:

 

If

 

the

 

server

 

is

 

part

 

of

 

a

 

shared

 

hard

 

disk

 

drive

 

cluster,

 

run

 

one

 

test

 

at

 

a

 

time.

 

Do

 

not

 

run

 

any

 

suite

 

of

 

tests,

 

such

 

as

 

“quick”

 

or

 

“normal”

 

tests,

 

because

 

this

 

might

 

enable

 

the

 

hard

 

disk

 

drive

 

diagnostic

 

tests.

 

v

   

If

 

the

is

a

code

 

is
