Option problems Symptom An IBM option that was just installed does not work. An IBM option that used to work does not work now. Suggested action Make sure that: v The option is designed for the blade server. See the "Server Support" flowchart on the cover for information about obtaining ServerProven compatibility information from the World Wide Web. v You followed the installation instructions that come with the option. v The option is installed correctly. v You have not loosened any other installed options or cables. If the problem remains, call for service. Make sure that all of the option hardware and cable connections are secure. If the option comes with its own test instructions, use those instructions to test the option. If the problem remains, call for service. Power problems Symptom The blade server does not turn on. Suggested action 1. Make sure that: a. The power LED on the front of the BladeCenter unit is lit. b. The LEDs on all the power modules are lit. c. If the blade server or attached storage expansion unit is in blade bay 7 through 14 (in the BladeCenter unit) and blade bay 5 through 8 (in the BladeCenter T unit), that power modules are in all four power bays. d. The power-on LED on the blade server control panel is flashing slowly. v If the power LED is flashing rapidly and continues to do so, the blade server is not communicating with the management module; reseat the blade server and go to step 3.. v If the power LED is off, either the blade bay is not receiving power, the blade server is defective, or the LED information panel is loose or defective. e. Local power control for the blade server is enabled (use the management-module Web interface to verify), or the blade server was instructed through the management module (Web interface or IBM Director) to turn on. Note: For more information about the IBM Director program, see "IBM Director" on page 10. 2. If you just installed an option in the blade server, remove it, and restart the blade server. If the blade server now turns on, troubleshoot the option (see the documentation that comes with the option for information). 3. Try another blade server in the blade bay; if it works, replace the faulty blade server. 4. If the problem remains, call for service. 64 BladeCenter HS20 Type 8832: Installation and User's Guide
