Diagnostics
The server provides the self-check diagnostics function for some components. If a fault occurs in a
component, the server can diagnose the component to detect the fault.
For this server, CPU modules and IO modules can be diagnosed all together.
To diagnose a component with the NEC ESMPRO Manager, use the [Maintenance] tree of the
component in the data viewer. Open the tree of the component to be diagnosed and select the
[Maintenance] tree.
To diagnose of a component with the Server Maintenance Utility, use the component screens of the
Server Maintenance Utility.
The table below shows the potential cases in which a component is to be diagnosed.
