Troubleshooting flowcharts

To effectively troubleshoot a problem, HP recommends that you start with the first flowchart in this section,

"Start diagnosis flowchart (on page

)," and follow the appropriate diagnostic path. If the other

flowcharts do not provide a troubleshooting solution, follow the diagnostic steps in "General diagnosis

flowchart (on page

76

when the problem is not server-specific or is not easily categorized into the other flowcharts.
The available flowcharts include:
