Hi,
On Linux Redhat 5.3, found one of the server has amber light. I then ran
dmidecode
, I found this on the result.
System Boot Information
Status: Firmware-detected hardware failure
But it doesn't tell me which hardware failure? It's running on HP.
Any idea?
HP may have model-specific utilities for it, which HP?
PROLIANT DL380 G6. Any idea how I can find what's wrong with the server (amber light)?
HP has insight tools for Linux. Not sure if that helps. If you don't mind bringing the platform down, you can run the HP insight tools from CD/DVD and do diagnostics.
Download and install the HP Proliant Support Pack (PSP) from HP's website (free download). We install that on all our HP servers. The tools provided have aided in troubleshooting and diagnosing more times than I can count:
