Dell R210 II

Hi guys,

i have a 2 Dell R210 II running an E3-1230 V2 CPU and 8gb ram. the server boots (well sounds like it does) the blue light comes up on the back but i get no VGA output. this is happening on two servers which i thought was odd. these 2 servers have been tested and were working previously.

Ndn1992,

The first thing I would do is verify if the issue is happening with the monitor connected to both the front and back VGA ports. If so then I would try taking the server to its Minimum to Post configuration, which is removing everything from the server except the following devices;

  • System Board
  • Processor with Heatsink
  • 1 DIMM in slot 1
  • Riser Card
  • Power Supply
  • Control Panel and Cables

After that then boot and see if that resolves the issue. If so then individually add the removed devices back until the issue reappears, which identifies the problem part. If everything is reinstalled and the issue doesn't reappear then I would suggest updating the server to current.

Let us know what you see.
