System does not Boot after Initial Installation
Power Cord Not Plugged In
If the power supply cable is not plugged into the chassis power connector, the system
can-not boot up, even though chassis front panel LEDs and the fan may be operational.
Verify that the power connections are good.
Processor Issues
Boot failure situations are also caused by the following:
Incompatible processor - ensure the selected processor model is correct for your server
board. If the processor is compatible, try removing and reinstalling the processor to
ensure it is installed correctly.
Processor overheat - the system does not boot or shuts down shortly after booting.
Ensure that the cooling fans are correctly installed and running.
