Thanks to many that replied. The majority suggested that the case wasn't properly closed, which they were correct. (since there is a switch that prevents power on w/o case on). However, I'll include few other replies, which you might find helpful. " I have an E450 with the same symptoms... When I investigated it with Sun, I was informed that it is most likley the DC distribution back plane in the server (between the PS and the MoBo).. It wasn't worth us fixing so I don't know what sort of cost it was going to be.. " "Without any further information to the contrary, I would suspect that you have lost DC output from the power supplies. I assume from the fact that you say "power supplies" that you have at least 2 PSUs. If that is true, then I would suspect that you have lost the DC Power Distribution Board internally. There are fuses (of a sort) on that board but you can only replace the board. You may be able to tell by seeing how many LEDs are showing on each PSU on the rear of the machine. Looking at a PSU from the rear of the machine, there are 3 LEDs to indicate power status. All 3 need to be lit for normal operation. If the right hand LED (from the rear) is NOT lit, then there is no DC output."

Can you tell me where to look? _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Fri Jun 4 14:18:30 2004
