I have an Alphaserver 800 that runs OpenVMS. Recently the system has become inoperable. When I power the system on, there is no display on the graphics or serial consoles.
I do hear 7 beeps in the sequence:-
1 12 1234
If anyone can shed some light on what this sequnce means and what the error could be it would be greatly appreciated?
Thanks
Andrew

Table 2-1 Interpreting Error Beep Codes (continued)
1-2-4
Backup cache error.
Replace the CPU daughter board (Chapter 7).
The system can be operated with the B-cache disabled until a replacement CPU daughter board is available. Bank 1 of the J1 jumper
on the CPU daughter board is used to disable the B-cache. Refer to Appendix A.
