Diagnostic steps
To effectively troubleshoot a problem, HP recommends that you start with the
first flowchart in this section, "Start diagnosis flowchart (on page
132 )," 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
134 )." The General diagnosis flowchart is a generic
troubleshooting process to be used when the problem is not server-specific or is
not easily categorized into the other flowcharts.
The available flowcharts include:
• Start diagnosis flowchart (on page
132 )
• General diagnosis flowchart (on page
134 )
• Power-on problems flowchart (on page
136 )
• POST problems flowchart (on page
139 )
• OS boot problems flowchart (on page
142 )
