Hello Since you have parts to swap I would recommend testing the node in another slot, taking the system to minimum to POST, and swapping with known good memory and CPU. If you don't find issues with any of the other components then I would replace the system board. Thanks
A few hours ago, one of the nodes on a Dell C6100 4 node server stopped responding while I was actively working on it. After 5 hours of troubleshooting, here is what I have found...- No video output- Because there is no video output, the BIOS is not accessible- Cleared CMOS, same story- Reseated and shuffled all the RAM - nothing- Ping / traceroute timeoutHowever, the node is receiving power from the backplane. The IPMI ethernet port's activity lights turn on as soon as the node is plugged into the chassis and the blue indicator light appears when the indicator button is pressed on the front bezel. When the power button is pressed, the HDD lights go green and it spins up but the eth0 port still shows no activity. Essentially, the server is receiving power but does not boot with no signs of error LEDs or beeping errors.IPMI is accessible via the web however the event log only shows [URL] and power control via that interface fails as well.IPMI firmware: 1.22BIOS version: Not sure, can't access itIs this a bricked motherboard that should just be replaced?
