Hello,
we are having problems with Dell PowerEdge M620 machines.
http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/poweredge-m620/fs
These are blade servers which are installed in a special chassis:
http://www.dell.com/us/dfb/p/poweredge-m1000e/pd
Already updated Bios to the lastest version, as well as the iDRAC and other components which might not seem important.
One thing to note is that we have 2 different hardware versions of this machine.
The older ones have two E5-2620 CPUs while the newer ones have two E5-2620v2 CPUs installed.
I am seeing the following errors:
1) It immediately shows 4 ECC errors on the new servers (with E5-2620v2), no matter if I use single or parallel CPU mode. I also tried to change the address range (like 3g start, 4g end), but that didn't help either. Tried booting from USB and Virtual Media. The older model does not have the issue.
Posted a result screenshot, got no log file for this one right now.
2) Mouse support is broken when using Dell iDRAC (latest version), KVM works fine though.
Is there any way I can select items from the list on the left (like CPU Selection) without a mouse? Left arrow and TAB don't seem to work sadly.
I think keyboard shortcuts for this would be really great or am I just missing it?
3) When trying to view detailed SPD info no modules are display at all (Happens on both models)
4) CPU temperature is not shown, it stays at 0C (Happens on both models)
I hope you can help me figuring out these issues
I mailed you the log from an older blade without the ECC issue and the results file from a newer one without this issue.
(Yes I know, the other log file would be much more interesting but obviously Memtest86 will overwrite the previous log file if you boot it in an other machine.... It would be much more better if naming rules were identical to the results)
Kind regards,
Benjamin
