5. Troubleshooting Quick Reference
| Symptom | Possible Cause | Relevance to this Part | Quick Check Method | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Server fails to boot | Power supply failure, memory fault, or OS issue | ✅ High | Check power supply status LEDs; verify memory seating; review BIOS/POST messages | Replace failed PSU if redundant pair indicates fault; reseat or replace memory modules |
| Control Core Services or workstation not accessible | Network configuration or software service failure | ✅ High | Verify Ethernet links to Control Network; check Windows services status | Confirm IP configuration and network adapters; restart relevant Foxboro services |
| Storage / RAID degradation | Failed drive or RAID rebuild issue | ✅ High | Inspect RAID controller status and drive LEDs | Replace failed drive with compatible spare; monitor rebuild progress |
| High CPU or memory utilization | Overloaded applications or insufficient resources | ✅ Medium | Use Windows Performance Monitor; review running Foxboro processes | Add memory or redistribute applications across additional H90 servers |
| Domain controller or historian problems | Software configuration or database issues | ✅ Medium | Check event logs and application-specific diagnostics | Verify domain settings and historian database integrity |
| Overheating or thermal shutdown | Restricted airflow or failed fans | ✅ Medium | Inspect rack airflow and internal fan operation | Ensure adequate ventilation; replace failed cooling components |
If diagnostics remain unclear, capture system event logs, RAID status, network configuration screenshots, and Foxboro software version details, then contact technical support with the exact part number and configuration.
