Hello Alex,

I would try removing all PCI devices from the server, then powering it on. If you don't see any change in behavior, then you'll want to take it to the minimum to POST and try again. If the server POSTs without issue, then you can start reinstalling components to see what has been giving you an issue.

Hello Alessandro,

Ok, so a Minimum to Post configuration is a hardware stage where you have removed all componentes that are not required to POST, therefore, to boot the basic system software layer. So you will need to remove all hardware components one by one.

For a R320, the minimum components to allow the PowerEdge R320 to complete POST are:

System Board
CPU1 with heat sink (minimum for troubleshooting)
Single DIMM configuration with DIMM in socket A1
Control Panel with cable (to power system on)
Expansion Riser
PSU (and for redundant PSU also the PDB/PIB)

Regards.
