Error code VLT0204 on a Poweredge R720
Hello,
I picked up a server recently and have been trying to diagnose its problem. I have error code VLT0204 "the System Board fail-safe voltage is outside of range" and a 2cpu configuration in a C4B3R motherboard. Some things I have tried:
- Reduce server to minimum configuration (same error occurs)
- Swap power supplies out in minimum and fully loaded configurations (same error occurs)
- Remove all swappable drives (same error occurs)
- *Notably there is a green light on in the Riser 1 area of the motherboard (so I assume power is going there)
I'm thinking that there may be a short in the motherboard somewhere, and am wondering if I can get a detailed diagram of the motherboard to help diagnose where it could be. Or if there are any other tips to diagnose.
Thank you!

Hi, I'd say what you need to do is to Reduce server to minimum configuration (when same error occurs). So just one CPU and if you still see the same error, I'm afraid you may have to change the motherboard.
