If the device or component is not compatible, remove it from the blade server, reinstall the blade server in the SBCE unit, and then restart the blade server. If the blade server does not start after you have performed the preceding actions, see the Intel® Server Compute Blade SBXD132 Hardware Maintenance and Troubleshooting Guide on the Resource CD. Diagnostic Tools Overview The following tools are available to help you diagnose and solve hardware-related problems: • POST beep codes The power-on self-test beep codes can indicate the detection of a problem. - One beep indicates successful completion of POST - Repeating long beeps indicate a memory error. Make sure that all DIMMs are correctly installed. - Additional beep codes are listed under "Diagnostics" in the Hardware Maintenance and Troubleshooting Guide for your blade server type. • POST error codes The POST error codes indicate the detection of a problem.
