I'm posting this in the hopes that someone can help. I have looked through various sources online, but could find no answer or discussion, so I'll be opening it myself.
I'm not sure what all information I should start with about the server, but I'll start with the following:
Intel(R) Server Board: S5400SF
Intel(R) Server System: SR1560SF
System BIOS: S5400.86B.07.00.0033
BMC Firmware Revision: 0.11
HSC Firmware Revision: 2.09
SDR Revision: SDR Package 11
Problem:
I've been having an issue with the throttling mode. Whenever I boot, I receive a POST error, 85FC, telling me that Closed Loop Thermal Throttling could not be configured.
The most information I could find on this issue is that it may not configure properly if any installed DIMMs do not have functional AMB thermal sensors, but as far as I can tell, mine do.
I am waiting to hear back from the seller I purchased this from, but if it is possible to fix this rather than send it back and wait for a replacement (if they agree on that method), I would much rather do so.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
