Checkpoint codes The POST firmware checkpoints (progress codes) indicate the detection of a problem if the server stops on a checkpoint during the startup process. v A four-digit code indicates successful completion of POST when the server does not stop on that checkpoint. v A result other than a four-digit code indicates that POST might have detected a problem. Error messages also appear during startup if POST detects a hardware-configuration problem. The last POST firmware checkpoint code posted is the most likely failure. Checkpoints display in the system console from the time that ac power is connected to the system until the operating-system login prompt is displayed after a successful operating-system startup. These checkpoints have the following forms: Dxxx, Exxx Dxxx and Exxx checkpoints indicate that a system processor is in control and is initializing the system resources. Control passes to the operating system when E105 displays on the operator panel display. Location code information might also display on the operator panel during this time. These codes range from Dxxx to EFFF. Error codes If a fault is detected, an 8-digit error code is displayed in the BladeCenter management-module event log. A location code might be displayed at the same time on the second line. Checkpoint code D001 D002 D003 D004 The management-module log, which can be accessed through the BladeCenter unit, contains the most recent error codes and messages that the system generated during POST.

Checkpoint
codes
The
POST
firmware
checkpoints
(progress
codes)
indicate
the
detection
of
a
problem
if
the
server
stops
on
a
checkpoint
during
the
startup
process.
v
A
four-digit
code
indicates
successful
completion
of
POST
when
the
server
does
not
stop
on
that
checkpoint.
v
A
result
other
than
a
four-digit
code
indicates
that
POST
might
have
detected
a
problem.
Error
messages
also
appear
during
startup
if
POST
detects
a
hardware-configuration
problem.
The
last
POST
firmware
checkpoint
code
posted
is
the
most
likely
failure.
Checkpoints
display
in
the
system
console
from
the
time
that
ac
power
is
connected
to
the
system
until
the
operating-system
login
prompt
is
displayed
after
a
successful
operating-system
startup.
These
checkpoints
have
the
following
forms:
Dxxx,
Exxx
Dxxx
and
Exxx
checkpoints
indicate
that
a

processor

resources.

the

code
information
might
also
display
on

These
codes
range
from
Dxxx
to
EFFF.
Error
codes
If
a
fault
is
detected,
an
8-digit
error
code
is
displayed
in
the
BladeCenter
management-module
event
log.
A
location
code
might
be
displayed
at
the
same
time
on
the
second
line.
The
management-module
log,
which
can
be
accessed
through
the
BladeCenter
unit,
contains
the
most
recent
error
codes
and

that
the
