POST ERRORS.... Help!

[Mike Hofford_1]

I'm not too sure if this question has ever been asked but can anyone point me in the right direction in getting an explanation of POST ERRORs? I keep getting "Post Error: 177 - Configuration not complete Controller order not setup" in the IML. Is there a listing of Post Errors? Any information will be a great help.

Mike,

You need to run the System COnfiguration Utility from the SmartStart CD or floppy


Here is the link for creating the floppy.

Thanks for the response but... this server was just reloaded about 2 weeks ago with Windows NT 4.0 SP6a and Insight Manager agents 5.30, (I know what you are thinking but that is a whole other issue). When I was finished I turned the server off. Then three days ago the server was reinstalled at the original site and started. It was at this time I recieved the POST ERROR. Could it possibly be the system board battery?

- Reboot Server and Press F10
- Run System Configuration Utility
- Check the Controller boot order then save it and reboot the server.

Mike,

If this is a DL360 G1 server with 800Mhz CPU or slower then get the power supply replaced.

Compaq spare part number is 173828-001.

You can check for affected PSU's. They have the following Revision 01 date codes. This only affects DL360 G1 models as stated above.

C0026, C0027, C0028 and C0029.

Regards,

Brian
