http://www.ibm.com/systems/management/. For more information about diagnostic programs and error messages, see the Problem Determination and Service Guide for your blade server. Note: If you are unable to find the system-error logs in the blade server firmware code, view the system-event log in the BladeCenter management module. v Dynamic System Analysis (DSA) Preboot diagnostic program The DSA Preboot diagnostic programs are stored in read-only memory and collect and analyze system information to aid in diagnosing server problems. The diagnostic programs collect the following information about the server: - Drive health information - Event logs for ServeRAID controllers and service processors - Hardware inventory, including PCI and USB information - Light path diagnostics status - LSI RAID and controller configuration - Network interfaces and settings - ServeRAID configuration - Service processor status and configuration - System configuration - Vital product data, firmware, and Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) configuration The diagnostic programs create a merged log that includes events from all collected logs. The information is collected into a file that you can send to IBM service and support. Additionally, you can view the information locally through a generated text report file. You can also copy the log to removable media and view the log from a Web browser. ServerGuide problems Use this information to locate ServerGuide problems and suggested actions. The following table lists problem symptoms and suggested solutions. Symptom The ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD will not start. The RAID configuration program cannot view all installed drives, or the operating system cannot be installed. The operating-system installation program continuously loops. Suggested action v Make sure that the CD drive is associated with the blade server that you are configuring. v Make sure that the blade server supports the ServerGuide program and has a bootable CD (or DVD) drive. v If the startup (boot) sequence settings have been changed, make sure that the CD drive is first in the startup sequence. v Make sure that there are no duplicate SCSI/SAS IDs or interrupt request (IRQ) assignments. See "Configuring a RAID array" on page 67. v Make sure that the storage drive is connected correctly. See "Blade server connectors" on page 19 to locate the storage drive connector.
