es1042 not starting after powercycle
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

es1042 was rebooted as part of T419961 and did not start. There is nothing on the serial console; I tried powercycling it again twice with no success.

The only error I'm seeing from racadm is:

SeqNumber       = 423
Message ID      = HWC8010
Category        = System

Can you please take a look? Thanks
