CA000000 to CA2799FF Partition firmware checkpoints

The CAxx partition firmware progress codes provide information about the progress of partition firmware as it is initializing. In some cases, a server might hang (or stall) at one of these progress codes without displaying an 8-character system reference code (SRC).

Table 1 lists the progress codes that might be displayed during the power-on self-test (POST), along with suggested actions to take if the system hangs on the progress code. Only when you experience a hang condition should you take any of the actions described for a progress code.

In the following progress codes, x can be any number or letter.

Table 1. CA000000 to CA2799FF checkpoints
  • If the system hangs on a progress code, follow the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed in the Action column until the problem is solved. If an action solves the problem, you can stop performing the remaining actions.
  • See Parts listing, type 7891 to determine which components are CRUs and which components are FRUs.

CA2799FD A firmware update module is being read. This checkpoint alternates in the control panel with CA2799FF.

This pair of checkpoints might stay in the display for up to 30 minutes with no indication of activity other than the alternating codes. Do not assume that the system is hung until the alternation stops and only one of the checkpoints remains in the control panel for at least 30 minutes, with no other indication of activity.

If the system is hung on this checkpoint, then CA2799FD and CA2799FF are not alternating and you must perform the following procedure:
  1. Shut down the blade server.
  2. Restart the blade server using the permanent boot image, as described in Starting the PERM image.
  3. Use the Update and Manage System Flash menu to reject the temporary image.
