Our Server Dell T110 II unable to boot into OS, but when reboot many times sometimes can boot into POST or OS.

Hello @ant135,
There are a bunch of reasons why the sever could not be booting. But you will need to perform some troubleshooting in order to find the root cause.
First, regarding the Diagnostic indicator lights codes you can see in the server, in the T110 II Owner's Manual (Page 17) you can see what this means: Possible system resource configuration error.
Now, first thing I would suggest you is to perform a clean flea power operation: How do I Reset and Drain Power of my Dell PowerEdge Server? https://dell.to/3lSu9AM
Second, you should consider doing a Minimum to Post. The goal is to remove all non mandatory for the server to complete POST. For a PowerEdge T100 II you should only have connected:
System Board
Processor with Heatsink
1 DIMM in slot 1
Power Supply
Control Panel and Cable
If the error persist after this basic configuration, it will mean any of those components is presenting an hardware error and will need a replacement.
Hope this helps.
Regards.

Hello Diego,
We have tried to follow your sugestion here.
The Server sometime can complete POST, and then can't load or complete POST anymore.
Btw do you have any recommendation for authorized service center in our country (Indonesia, South Sumatera) ?
Thank you

Hi I'm afraid it is most likely a motherboard issue, I'm suspecting. Can you please look at the link for your location here?
