Troubleshooting

Unit does not power up

If the server fails to power on or is unresponsive, clearing the CMOS may help. It will also restore the BIOS to factory defaults. Ensure this procedure is done in a static safe environment. A grounding strap is recommended.

Unplug the server completely from power and all peripherals
Loosen the captive thumbscrew on the back near the power supply

Slide the top panel towards the back of the server and lift it off

Locate the clear CMOS solder pads

Using a flathead screwdriver or similar conductive tool, short the two pins together for 30 seconds
Slide the lid back on, reconnect the server, and power it on
It may reboot several times to re-detect hardware
If it continues to malfunction, contact technical support.
