    5 Troubleshooting This chapter provides troubleshooting instructions used in the installation of the HP Integrity rx4640 server. Troubleshooting Tips WARNING! Before removing a cover to service components that cannot be hot-swapped, always disconnect the AC power cords and unplug telephone cables. Disconnect telephone cables to avoid exposure to shock hazard from telephone ringing voltages.
  • Page 96: Possible Problems

    Verify that all cables and modules are correctly connected. Especially check the display panel connection. Review the installation procedures for the server. See the HP Integrity rx4640 Installation Guide. If the server starts to power-on and then power-off, a voltage rail of the power supply might be out of specification.
