Power
You press the power button, but the server does not turn on
■ The server may not be connected to an AC power source. Check the power
connections, or try another wall outlet.
■ If the power button LED is green, the server is turned on, but you may
not be seeing an image on the monitor. For monitor troubleshooting, see
“Monitor” on page 98.
■ If your server is plugged into a surge protector or UPS, make sure that the
surge protector or UPS is connected securely to an electrical outlet, turned
on, and working correctly. One way to check this is to plug the server
directly into a wall outlet, bypassing the surge protector or UPS.
■ Make sure that all devices are connected securely to the surge protector
and turned on correctly.
■ Make sure that the electrical outlet is working by plugging a working
device, such as a lamp, into the outlet, then turning it on to test the outlet.
■ Open your server and make sure that the power supply cable is connected
correctly to the system board.
■ Open your server and make sure that the power button cable is connected
