Understanding the power-on self-test
When you turn on your server, the power-on self-test (POST) routine checks the server memory
and components. If POST finds any problems, the server displays error messages. Write down
any error messages that you see, then see “Error messages” on page 53 and “Beep codes” on
page 58 for troubleshooting information.
