Page 102 highlights

Service processor error codes When viewed from POST, service processor (baseboard management controller) error codes will appear in hexadecimal form (generally beginning with A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, AD, AE, or E1), unless a Remote Supervisor Adapter is installed. However, when viewed from the system-error log, the messages will appear as text. To determine a possible error condition for the service processor, see the system-error log (see "Starting the diagnostic programs and viewing the test log" on page 17). ServeRAID error codes In the following error codes, x can be any number or letter. Note: See Chapter 8, "Parts listing, Type 8482 and 8487," on page 99 to determine which components are replaceable by the customer, and which components must be replaced by a field service technician.
