NEC EXPRESS 5800 Manuale Utente

When an error occurs in the server, an error message appears on the display unit connected to the
server.

Powering on the server automatically starts the self-diagnostic program, POST (Power On Self-
Test).  When the POST detects any error, it displays an error message and its error code on the
display unit.
Follow the table below to troubleshoot such errors.  However, even when there is no hardware
failure, use of the keyboard or mouse at the following events causes POST to assume a keyboard
controller error and stop processing.

!

 

Immediately after the server is powered

!

 

Immediately after the system is rebooted in response to a keyboard instruction
(simultaneous key entry of Ctrl + Alt + Delete)

!

 

Immediately after the system is rebooted in response to an OS instruction

!

 

During hardware initialization following restart of POST

When POST detects a hardware failure due to any of the above reasons, restart the server.  If the
same error message reappears, you may assume there is no hardware error.  To ensure normal
server operation make sure you follow the following restrictions.

!

 

Do not make any keyboard entry or use the mouse before the memory size appears on the
screen following the server power-on.

!

 

Do not make any keyboard entry or use the mouse before the start-up message of the
SCSI Configuration Utility appears on the screen following the server reboot.

 Note the on-screen message before contacting your service

representative.  The alarm indication is a great help for system
maintenance.
