Memory initialization error on scb1003
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

scb1003 doesn't boot up without manual intervention any more, during startup a memory inititalization error is shown, which needs to be acknowledged by pressing F1. Can you please run a memory check to identify the broken DIMM module? The server is OOW since 11 months, but maybe we have a spare module somewhere?

The host is depooled and can be taken down for hardware checks

@MoritzMuehlenhoff The DIMM at A2 was bad. I tested it by swapping to B2 and it the failure moved to B2. Fortunately we have a few R420 with similar DIMM decommissioned already and I was able to replace it. Please verify all is well and resolve this task

Looks all fine, I've repooled the server.
