Question : Problem: DELL Power Edge 2450, Event ID: 1153

Good Day Folks,

I have this reoccuring problem with one of our Print servers. I receive these warning messages and occasionaly the server locks up.  The message is listed below:

Event ID:  1153
Voltage Sensor detected a warning value
Sensor Location:  Backplane + 12V
Chasis Location: Main System Chasis
Previous State was: OK (Normal)
Voltage sensor value (In volts):  11,500

Now, I have replaced the power supply in the unit and these messgages still pop up.  Could anyone be of assistance.

have you tried replacing the backplane? The error is saying that the backplane is not getting the required 12V DC ... since the backplane is what keeps your hard drives talking and spinning, i fully understand why the server is locking up. If the backplane doesnt get the voltage it needs, the drives wont either ...

i'd try replacing the backplane to rule that out.

is the system still under warranty?
