Poweredge 2650
Greeting,
Does anyone know if diagnositc utility requires a OS in order to test the PowerEdge 2650? I tried to run a diagnostic utility bootable driver but it does not work. I tried to run OpenManage Server Assistant, it tells me there is no utility partition. Which bootable driver do I need to use to install an utility partition?
thanks,
Gene
- Without trying to sound cocky I think the diagnostics are a waste of time.Usually the utilities that are provided by Dell such as DSet, Array Manager, OpenmanageServer Administrator etc are more than enough to diagnose any problem or potential problem.Just ensure that the BIOS is at the latest level, the ESM/ERA firmware is at the latest and thePERC has the latest drivers/BIOS/Firmware.If all these are OK and you have the above utilities installed you should be sweet whenit comes to diagnosing problems on the PE2650.
