Hello all,
I purchased a used VRTX chassis on eBay and seem to be having a ton of issues with it.
I first found out that the chassis midplane had grounded out and scorched the back of the blower cage as I went to re-seat them once I got into the CMC and saw the errors. The whole blower cage pulled out while trying to pull a single blower in doing so. What else I noticed is that there was no Midplane. I contacted the seller and they pulled apart another unit and sent me the midplane from it. the unit now sees the blowers and the power supplies and the I/O module but the I/O module is unknown and I cannot configure it. the Blowers all show critical 0 RPM, but are showing green before I power on the chassis and then go amber. I also have an M620 blade that I have purchased the PCI Mezz adapters for and in trying to install this get nothing? The blade does not show up as even installed in a slot!
Anyone have and recommendations on how to troubleshoot the issue(s) so I can get this working?
Thank you!
Bill
