Hey All, I tripped over the console cable which caused enough stress on the pci connector to bend it a few degrees. I was logged into the console the machine worked fine until I sent a command that uses some of the gpio pins to control a machine I noticed the machine did not respond and my inline gpio leds indicated no traffic.
It is normal for the console to not respond until the job is complete so I thought the machine was busy and some connection was broken so I let it sit for awhile. Eventually (hours) I got impatient and I rebooted the machine. sw1 switch did not respond and I had to pull the power. While inspecting the board I noticed the slight bend and have sine moved it back into position. I don't see any damage. I diagnosed the reset switch SW1 and found that I could find not get continuity by engaging the switch in any combinations of the 4 pins. When I now power up D3 the green power LED lights up D2 the red power LED lights up D8 network activity green LED does not light up even with ethernet plugged in D1 the yellow disk activity LED lights up I'm wondering if it is the sw1 that needs to be replaced? If anyone thinks that might have any advice on troubleshooting. Advice regarding use the use of bare boards with console cables running across the floor tolerated but not needed.
