Important Information 25
POST does not occur
when the PowerEdge
storage server is turned
on or rebooted, and a
beep code does not
occur.
The BIOS may need to
be updated, or a
memory module or
microprocessor needs
to be reseated or
replaced.
Without disconnecting the
power source, reboot the
PowerEdge storage server by
pressing
<Ctrl><Alt><Delete>. You
may need to repeat this key
combination several times. If the
system now POSTs, upgrade the
BIOS to the latest version.
If the system still does not
POST, try booting the system
with each individual memory
module. See the Installation and
Troubleshooting Guide for more
information. If the system does
not boot with a certain memory
module installed, then that
module is defective.
If the system does not POST
with any of the memory
modules, reseat the processor as
explained in the Installation and
Troubleshooting Guide. If the
system does not boot, try
replacing the processor with a
working processor. If the system
does not boot, the system board
may be defective. See “Getting
Help” in the system Installation
and Troubleshooting Guide.
