I have a Dell PowerEdge R420, 2 CPU Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5620 and 8 memories model HMT31GR7CFR4A-H9 installed.
I want to upgrade the RAM on the system, adding 4 more HMT31GR7CFR4A-H9 module but not sure if I can do it. I read the manual but fails to find the answer.
Greetings!
I have a T410 that shuts off after about 30 seconds with no errors or warnings, When I ran the Hardware Diags, the system failed with a failure code of: Error Code IPMI 2900:0221, MSG, <System Boot> System Board:: Voltage Sensor (5V PC) State Asserted "System Board". I am not able to stay logged onto the server in normal mode but can keep the server running in Safe Mode. I was not able to locate any errors in the Windows logs that indicate anything amiss in the OS, By the time the remote location notified us that they were experiencing issues with this unit constantly rebooting the RAID has experienced massive disk corruption which I was able to correct with Disk Check. The server will boot with no errors or messages and then just power off after about 30 seconds with no warning. Can this component be replaced and is so then what would be the part #, Since this is out of warranty I am looking for any assistance possible to repair this issue as this is still a good server that just happened to fail following the warranty expiration.
Thank you
Customer of mine wanted to replace their aged Dell PE 840 Server with a new PE R430 rack mounted. They ordered the machine without an OS and bought SBS2011 STD to load on it. The OS boots up but the usb ports act like they are dead. It won't see a mouse or keyboard attached.
Any ideas why ?

Hi all,
if this a wrong forum to post this question, let me know, but it's the closest one to the subject matter that I found.
We have a UPS W1920, Dell model P/N H928N, it has been off for a while. When we have tried to use it again, once pressed the power button (On/Off button), nothing happens, it's dead.
The only answer that I've found to such problem is on Dell Line-Interactive Rack UPS
1000W, 1920/1500W, and 2700/2300W - User Guide, where it's stated:
Alarm or Condition: The UPS does not start. (The LCD is off.)
Possible cause: Power is not connected.
Action: Check the power cord connections. Also ensure that the battery is plugged in.
The power cord is connected and it supplies power, we have accessed the "internal battery connector" and we can check that it supplies 24 Volts to the batteries. Obviously the batteries are dead, all them connected supply through the "battery connector" around 72 Volts, and individually some ones are empty, no volts.
The question that I'm posting is if there is any kind of technical guide or similar to get more insight on the UPS to try to reborn it. Or if somebody can point me if with new batteries it would restart (the UPS remains shutdown with no alert when the batteries are totally useless).
Thanks a lot for your help.
Dear Team,
I am facing problem with Dell Server R610 the server after some time later going hang and do not working anything keyboard/ mouse. The server running with windows server 2003 and SQL server 2005. Last day i am replace PERC card and update BIOS, Firmware/ Driver version for this issue and server run smoothly 18 hour, but today morning server again going to hang. Please help me on this.

As the subject states both PSU' are blinking green (alternating) at the rear of the server.
From what documentation I've read usually one blinks when there is a power output mismatch, but I was unable to find any explanation when both are blinking.
Can anyone shed any light?
The Poweredge R730xd does not include an internal DVD drive but has an external USB DVD-ROM. Is it possible to boot from this external drive?
I unboxed the server yesterday and got the OS installed. Overnight it shut off and now I'm getting 3 error messages on the front LCD and it won't POST.
VLT0222 The voltage is outside of range. Contact Support
VLT0304 CPU1 M23 VDDQ PG voltage is outside of range. Reseat CPU
VLT0304 CPU1 M23 VTT PG voltage is outside of range. Reseat CPU
I've tried draining the power and booting with just PSU 1 or 2 but it didn't help. What are my options?
Hi all,
we have a PowerEdge R510, current BIOS version is 1.5.3, BIOS version when it was purchased. After a reboot we had problems to get it up, it was stucked at boot BIOS (didn't take note of the error that was shown). Due to the fact that it was used in a facility where there was a lot of dust, and since there where dust in the inside, I disassembled all it and removed such dust. Once this operation was completed and reasseembled the server it went up with no problem, I took profit to take data backup with an USB 3.0 external HD.
Due to a UPS problem (batteries were dead), we suffered an uncontrolled electric power down and the server went shutdown. Now when we try to boot the server it is stuck on BIOS going up. The screen shows (after configuring memory message) DELL logo, running bar stopped at 20-25% and the error that it's shown are leds 2,3 and 4 with fixed light (ther is no LCD, it's a 12 HD slots), USB error.
I have tried to disassemble all it with the idea to boot it up and update firmaware in first place, but there is no way. From manual information I have tried to reset it through CLEAR jumper, removed motherboard battery, etc, but I cannot find how to get it up.
I have search through manuals, internet and forums if someone dealed with this problem and found a solution but with no luck. Can anyone give me a clue to solve it.
Thanks for your time and appreciated your help.

Hello every body!
My Dell C2100 used CPU X5650 and Perc Raid 700.
After power on, system say:
"Attached enclosure doesn't support in controller's direct mapping mode.
Please contact your system support.
System has halted due to supported configuration."
I replaced raid H700, then cable and upgrade FW. System not notification but after press Ctrl + R, perc raid h700 not detect any hdd.
Please help me!
Tks!
We have a KVM 2162DS that we use for connecting to our VMware Servers. This KVM supports remote connections. We are finding that when we connect remotely that the function keys such as F2 and F12 that you need to access to the hosts do not work. Wondering if anyone has found a fix for that?
The Poweredge R730xd does not include an internal DVD drive but has an external USB DVD-ROM. Is it possible to boot from this external drive?
Hello,
we have a dell R630 server. We would like to apply a driver upgrade:
LITEON 2.5IN 6Gb SATA BOOT SSD,110C
This upgrade states:
This update will run on drives remaining in a RAID set that is in a Offline state.
How can we set the RAID to offline mode?
Thanks and BR/
Hi all,
We have an urgent issue with a Dell M1000e enclosure. Suddenly in Saturday it stopped working and it’s showing “CMC not responding in LCD display”.
All the servers and switches are off and not turning on. The CMCs are repeatedly trying to be active (blue lights from one goes to other) but not working.
Fans and power supply all working at fool load.
We had a spare CMC and we switched it with the old on but we have the same problem. I think that it has to do something internal with the enclosure.
We have a spare enclosure (not used) and we though if we can take everything from the old enclosure to the new one. Will any of the information be lost ?
Could you please advise if you think anything else is the problem and if you have any idea how can we fix it ?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Kushtrim
Dell Power edge R730,
Server is working only we get the error on display screen on server. Error is:
CPU1 CPU0000 Internal error (IERR). Contact Support
I would like to install Windows 2012 Standard and I there is no driver for the Perc S300 controller.
I read to reroute the SATA data connectors into the motherboard and bypass the S300. But the SATA data cables provided do not allow me to do that. Which Dell cables I need to purchase that will allow me to do that?
Thanks!
Ed
I'm not sure what update file I'm suppose to use to update my M710HD through the CMC. I tried using M710HD_BIOS_VYR91_WN64_8.0.0.EXE but I just get package verification failed error RED007. I'm not sure what else I can try. I had read that if iDRAC isn't up to date it can cause issues, but iDRAC6 is on the latest version.
Thanks
Hello all,
I have a poweredge T410 that does not receive power, and I am trying to determine if the issue is with the power supply or the motherboard.
When power is plugged in, the power supply makes a clicking noise, and all of the lights inside of the system flicker. When the test button on the back of the power supply is held down, the system seems to receive stable power.
The system is in a minimum post state (1 cpu, 1 ram stick, cpu cooler, etc..) and it behaves the same with the front panel/power button disconnected.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Hi,
Is it possible to tell, via an alert, when the chassis fans are revving at top speed?
Thx,
