Customer self repair
HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and allow for greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis period HP (or HP service providers or service partners) identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the use of a CSR part, HP will ship that part directly to you for replacement. There are two categories of CSR parts:
???
???
Based on availability and where geography permits, CSR parts will be shipped for next business day delivery. Same day or
(5) business days. The defective part must be returned with the associated documentation in the provided shipping material. Failure to return the defective part may result in HP billing you for the replacement. With a customer self repair, HP will pay all shipping and part return costs and determine the courier/carrier to be used.
For more information about HP's Customer Self Repair program, contact your local service provider. For the North American program, refer to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
Parts only warranty service
Your HP Limited Warranty may include a parts only warranty service. Under the terms of parts only warranty service, HP will provide replacement parts free of charge.
For parts only warranty service, CSR part replacement is mandatory. If you request HP to replace these parts, you will be charged for the travel and labor costs of this service.

Riparazione da parte del cliente
Per abbreviare i tempi di riparazione e garantire una maggiore flessibilit?? nella sostituzione di parti difettose, i prodotti HP sono realizzati con numerosi componenti che possono essere riparati direttamente dal cliente (CSR, Customer Self Repair). Se in fase di diagnostica HP (o un centro di servizi o di assistenza HP) identifica il guasto come riparabile mediante un ricambio CSR, HP lo spedir?? direttamente al cliente per la sostituzione. Vi sono due categorie di parti CSR:
???
???
NOTA: alcuni componenti HP non sono progettati per la riparazione da parte del cliente. Per rispettare la garanzia, HP richiede che queste parti siano sostituite da un centro di assistenza autorizzato. Tali parti sono identificate da un "No" nel Catalogo illustrato dei componenti.
In base alla disponibilit?? e alla localit?? geografica, le parti CSR vengono spedite con consegna entro il giorno lavorativo seguente. La consegna nel giorno stesso o entro quattro ore ?? offerta con un supplemento di costo solo in alcune zone. In caso di necessit?? si pu?? richiedere l'assistenza telefonica di un addetto del centro di supporto tecnico HP. Nel materiale fornito con una parte di ricambio CSR, HP specifica se il cliente deve restituire dei componenti. Qualora sia richiesta la resa ad HP del componente difettoso, lo si deve spedire ad HP entro un determinato periodo di tempo, generalmente cinque (5) giorni lavorativi. Il componente difettoso deve essere restituito con la documentazione associata nell'imballo di spedizione fornito. La mancata restituzione del componente pu?? comportare la fatturazione del ricambio da parte di HP. Nel caso di riparazione da parte del cliente, HP sostiene tutte le spese di spedizione e resa e sceglie il corriere/vettore da utilizzare.
Per ulteriori informazioni sul programma CSR di HP contattare il centro di assistenza di zona. Per il programma in Nord America fare riferimento al sito Web HP (http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
Servizio di garanzia per i soli componenti
La garanzia limitata HP pu?? includere un servizio di garanzia per i soli componenti. Nei termini di garanzia del servizio per i soli componenti, HP fornir?? gratuitamente le parti di ricambio.
Per il servizio di garanzia per i soli componenti ?? obbligatoria la formula CSR che prevede la riparazione da parte del cliente. Se il cliente invece richiede la sostituzione ad HP, dovr?? sostenere le spese di spedizione e di manodopera per il servizio.

You may need to clear the Setup configuration values (CMOS) if the configuration has been corrupted, or if incorrect settings made in the Setup Utility have caused error messages to be unreadable.
To clear CMOS:
1.Perform the
2.If necessary, remove any accessory boards or cables that prevent access to the system configuration switch.
3.Locate the system maintenance jumper
4.Press the button. AC power must not be connected.
5.Perform the
6.During POST, press F10 to access the Setup Utility.
7.Load setup defaults by pressing F9.
8.Set time, date, and other system values.
9.Press F10 to close the Setup Utility.
NOTE: Clearing CMOS restore all system configurations and password default settings.
Before you can use a server, all devices must be tested and initialized, and the operating system must be bootstrapped to the memory. This is referred to as
These diagnostics, which reside in the BIOS ROM, isolate
During POST you can:
???Press ESC to skip the HP logo and go to POST boot progress display system summary screen.
???Press F10 to access the Setup Utility.
???Press F12 to request a network boot (PXE).
???Press F1 to continue POST after POST errors are detected.

POST related troubleshooting
Perform the following procedures when POST fails to run, displays error messages.
If the POST failure is during a routine boot up, check the following:
???All external cables and power cables should be firmly plugged in.
???The power outlet to the server should be connected and works correctly.
???The server and monitor are both turned on. The bicolour status LED indicator on the front panel must be lit up green.
???The monitor's contrast and brightness settings are correct.
???All internal cables are properly connected and all boards firmly seated.
???The processor is fully seated in its socket on the system board.
???The heat sink assembly is properly installed on top of the processor.
???All memory modules are properly installed.
???If you have installed a PCI accessory board, verify that the board is firmly seated and any jumpers on the board are properly set. Refer to the documentation provided with the accessory board.
???All internal cabling and connections are in their proper order.
???If you have changed the jumpers on the system board, verify that each is properly set.

SETSYS utility
SETSYS.EXE (DOS application) is the correct tool for setting the Serial Number/Asset Tag text on this server after a system board replacement has occurred.
Once the Serial Number/Asset Tag text has been entered via SETSYS, populating the SMBIOS data, the system BIOS will automatically write this info into the BMC IPMI FRU data on the next boot up.
