When the server turns on, it sits at "Testing Memory Please wait". I've taken out all of the ram and tried different sticks (thinking one may be bad). The other sticks that I've tested are 1GB sticks. The server itself has two CPUs. This server has been working for >6 months and I wanted to apply windows updates to it for this month.
Troubleshooting wise, this is what I've done:
- Scaled down to 1 ram stick.
- Tested different sticks
- Removed all HDDs except for HDD0
I was looking around the idrac6 and I noticed that under Power Supples that the Input Wattage is at 702 with a Max Wattage of 570 (FW version is 00.01.31 btw).. so do I need to get another 570 power supply for my 2nd slot or should I get a single power supply... Not sure what would cause the power to spike like this.
Under Power Monitoring:
- Amperage: 1A@124v
- Reading: 133w | 454 BTU/hr
I've tried everything I can think of to get this to work... what else can I do?
