Hi everyone,
I have a Poweredge T430 that has been running fine for the past two years.
I've run into an issue upgrading the cpus and although I have submitted an
SR to dell, I would like to ask for a second opinion.
The current configuration is as follows:
- 2*E5-2620 V3 (85W)
- Qlogic dual 8Gbps FC HBA
- PERC H730P
- 4*1GBps Intel i350-T4
- Small NVidia Geforce (50W)
- 750W Platinum PSU
I got a good deal on two E5-2697V3 chips (145W) locally and that's when my
problems started:
- With 2*E5-2697 V3, the iDrac works fine, the system powers on (nothing
on the screen), sets the fans to max speed and the LC log shows that the
system is stuck in a resetting loop caused by cpu0:
CPU0000: Internal error has occurred check for additional logs.
SYS1003: System CPU Resetting.
RAC0703: Requested system hardreset.
- With 1*E5-2697 V3 (the cpu formerly placed in the cpu0 socket), The
system boots fine and I can run LINPack on it without issues.
- When I put the 2*E5-2620V3 back into the system, the system worked fine
too.
I am wondering if I may have either a dead cpu (one of the E5-2697's) or a
PSU that's not providing sufficient power or something else..
I'd like to have additionnal guidance as I would like to minimze physical
operations into the chassis.. Have anyone seen anything like this before?
Do I need to upgrade my PSU to 1100W?
Thanks,
Vincent
