POST error messages and beep codes

Introduction to POST error messages

The error messages and codes in this section include all messages generated by ProLiant servers. Some

messages are informational only and do not indicate any error. A server generates only the codes that

are applicable to its configuration and options.

HP ProLiant p-Class server blades do not have speakers and thus do not support audio output. Disregard

the audible beeps information if the server falls into this category.

IMPORTANT: This guide provides information for multiple servers. Some information may not

apply to the server you are troubleshooting. Refer to the server documentation for information

on procedures, hardware options, software tools, and operating systems supported by the

server.

WARNING: To avoid potential problems, ALWAYS read the warnings and cautionary

information in the server documentation before removing, replacing, reseating, or modifying

system components.

NOTE:

Page numbers referenced in this document refer to pages in the HP ProLiant Server Troubleshooting Guide.
