Use this information to resolve intermittent problems with
the blade server.
IBM updates the support website with the latest tips and
techniques that you can use to resolve any problems. Go to the BladeCenter
support search website at http://www.ibm.com/supportportal/ to
see if any service bulletins have been generated.
Follow
the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed in the
Action column until the problem is solved.
- See Parts listing to determine which

| A problem occurs only occasionally
and is difficult to diagnose. |
- Make sure that:
- When the blade server is turned on, air is flowing from the rear
of the BladeCenter unit at the blower grille. If there is no airflow,
the blower is not working. This causes the blade server to overheat
and shut down.
- The SAS storage drives are configured correctly.
- Check the AMM and IMM logs for an error message (see Event logs).
- See Solving undetermined problems.
