Description
Intel is experiencing a higher than expected return rate on the power supplies for the Intel® Server Chassis SC5299BRP built before January 2008. Failures do not occur during run-time but may be encountered after the system is running for some time and it is powered off. The affected power supplies may not power back on. Only power supplies falling in the following serial number ranges are affected by this issue: M706XXXXXXXX and M707XXXXXXXX where XXXXXXXX are the sequential serial numbers. Root Cause The issue has been root caused to defective components in the startup control circuitry. A capacitor, from one specific vendor, did not meet the vendors’ capacitor life projection. Corrective Action / Resolution Intel will replace affected power supplies built before January 2008 that are in the affected serial number ranges listed above. Power supplies built in January 2008 and after are not affected by this issue. Customers wishing to query their system for power supply serial numbers to see if they are affected by this issue can do so by running the following command line using the FRUSDR utility: “frusdr /d fru IMBDEVICE 02” This will display the FRU area that contains the power supply serial number, see below for an example, the power supply area is highlighted in bold: FRU & SDR Load Utility Version 2.0.1 Build 11 FRU IMBDEVICE on bus FFh, Device ID 02h, IPMB address 20h, Lun 00h Displaying Header Area Common Header Area (Version 1, Length 8)
