RYYY
The detected memory is corrupt.
1.
Reseat the RIMMs.
2.
Reseat the memory expander card.
3.
Replace the RIMMs as described in
“System Memory” on page 159.
4.
Replace the memory expander
card.
RYY
No memory detected.
1.
Insert or reseat the RIMMs.
2.
Reseat the memory expander card.
3.
Replace the RIMMs as described in
“System Memory” on page 159.
4.
Replace the memory expander
card.
RY
●●
A memory pair is mismatched.
1.
Ensure each pair of RIMMs are
matched in size and type as
described in “Upgrading Memory
on the 8-RIMM MEC” on page 159.
2.
Replace the RIMMs as described in
“System Memory” on page 159.
3.
Replace the memory expander
card.
YR
●●
The BIOS is in Boot Block Recovery
Mode. Boot Block Recovery Mode can
be initiated automatically by the
BIOS from corruption caused by a
power failure during flash. Boot Block
Recovery Mode can be forced by
setting system board switch 2 to
ON
.
1.
Wait until the BIOS recovery
operation is complete (LED pattern
GR
●●
) and follow the solution
steps for pattern GR
●●
.
2.
Ensure system board switch 2 is
OFF
.
3.
Replace the system board as
described in “System Board” on
page 186.
