acoustic mode. This throttling occurs independent of your power configuration. Full processor speed is restored automatically when the conditions that have caused the throttling have been resolved. Network connection problems Network connection symptom One or more blade servers are unable to communicate with the network. Suggested action Make sure that: v The switch modules for the network interface being used are installed in the correct BladeCenter bays and are configured and operating correctly. v The settings in the switch module are correct for the blade server (settings in the switch module are blade server specific). For additional information, see: v Chapter 5, "Configuring the blade server," on page 37 v The Problem Determination and Service Guide that comes with your BladeCenter unit v Other product-specific documentation that comes with the switch module Note: For the latest editions of the IBM BladeCenter documentation, go to http://www.ibm.com/support/us/en/. If the problem remains, see QS21 Problem Determination and Service Guide. If all the blades cannot communicate with the network, check the network itself for problems. Service processor problems Service processor symptom Suggested action Service processor reports a general monitor failure. 1. If the blade server is operating, shut down the operating system. 2. If the blade server was not turned off, press the power-control button (behind the blade server control-panel door) to turn off the server. 3. Remove the blade server from the BladeCenter unit. 4. Wait 30 seconds and reinstall the blade server into the BladeCenter unit. 5. Restart the blade server.
