DL585 G1 hangs during memory test
You'd think this would point to a motherboard issue, but I installed a new board, and it does the same thing. I've replaced the motherboard, all four CPU modules, and all of the RAM, so I essentially have a new system; the only remaining common denominators are the backplane and chassis, and I can't see any possible way for these components to affect memory addressing.
There are two 72GB 15K U320 hard drives installed, but no OS. System is running SmartStart 8.1, and firmware version 8.2.
The internal error light is on, but none of the top panel LEDS are light and all of the internal LEDs are green.
Ideas?

Re: DL585 G1 hangs during memory test
I would try the text mode anyway and see what result you get...
"RESOLUTION
As a workaround, while booting the SmartStart Release 8.10 or the Firmware Maintenance CD Version 8.20, perform the following to prevent the CD unresponsiveness:
From the first graphical screen, press the ESC key.
Choose to enter text mode.
At the prompt, type "sos mem=4G" and press the ENTER key. "
For me I had 32GB of memory. The server reported no H/W errors and the customer needed the system back into production. I was not able to troubleshoot further and the system has been running fine with no errors. The memory test however still would not complete...

Re: DL585 G1 hangs during memory test
FYI: The product went EOL on Wednesday, January 31, 2007.
Also, I successfully ran the diagnostics on a DL380 G4 to make sure that the test and my CD / USB sticks actually worked.
