Something wrong with ProLiant Server

Daylin Pillay · ‎02-05-2008

Hi,

There is something wrong with ProLiant 370 G3.

Suddenly, It was down. I noticed that Power LED was flashing. SCSI Hard Drive's LED were flashing too. I pressed power button. It won't start up. so I pressed UID(Blue LED) button. It did start up and ran. It seems ok. I guess that server's in emergency mode. What should I do with it? Just leave it as running ? It must be repaired immediately ?

Hi,

If you have the ILO configured for the server Check the Ilo Event LOG and IML for any Problems.

Unfortunately, I don't have ILO or ILM configured on ProLiant G3.

The UID light is just a light, it has nothing to do with a server being able to power on or not. After the server came on did all the lights go green?

Yeah that's what I thought. When I turned UID off, it won't run. There were some flashing LEDS on power, other two LEDs, and Hard Drive LEDs. If I pressed UID on, it started up and run. It seemed ok. That's odd.

I am setting up ILO. I hope it will help me what's wrong with it.

I just looked at the Front Panel LEDs when it won't start up.

UID - off
Internal system health LED - off
External system health (power supply) - Red
NIC link/activity - Green
Power On - Amber (with flashing)

It looks like critical power supply failure.

Do I need to order power supply and replace it? Is it easy to get power supply?
