Symptom:
After installing two 25G host boards, the GS fails to boot up.
Diagnosis:
Upon connecting via RS232 and viewing the diagnostic output, the system shows Diag error: 2107. This error typically indicates that the system does not have sufficient memory to boot up properly.
Solution:
Install Sufficient Memory
- Check Memory Requirements:
Verify that the installed memory meets the minimum requirements. When using 2 host boards per controller, a minimum of 16GB (or more) memory per controller is necessary for normal GS operation. - Install Additional Memory:
If the current memory configuration is insufficient, install at least 16GB of memory (or more) per controller to support the host boards and enable successful boot-up. - Verify Compatibility:
Ensure that the memory modules are compatible with your GS model and meet the Infortrend’s specifications. - Restart and Test:
After installing the additional memory, restart the GS and verify that it boots up without issues.
By following these steps, you can resolve the boot failure issue caused by insufficient memory capacity after installing 25G host boards on your GS system.
