Do not disconnect the printer if you want to use it to print error messages. 6. Collect all tools and utilities, such as a Torx screwdriver, loopback adapters, ESD wrist strap, and software utilities, necessary to troubleshoot the problem. − You must have the appropriate Health Drivers and Management Agents installed on the server. NOTE: To verify the server configuration, connect to the System Management homepage and select Version Control Agent. The VCA gives you a list of names and versions of all installed HP drivers, Management Agents, and utilities, and whether they are up to date. − HP recommends you have access to the SmartStart CD for value-added software and drivers required during the troubleshooting process. − HP recommends you have access to the server documentation ("Environmental Specifications" on page 113) for server-specific information. Symptom Information Before troubleshooting a server problem, collect the following information: • What events preceded the failure? After which steps does the problem occur? • What has been changed between the time the server was working and now? • Did you recently add or remove hardware or software? If so, did you remember to change the appropriate settings in the server setup utility, if necessary? • Has the server exhibited problem symptoms for a period of time? • If the problem occurs randomly, what is the duration or frequency? To answer these questions, the following information may be useful: • Run HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 73) and use the survey page to view the current configuration or to compare it to previous configurations. • Refer to your hardware and software records for information.
