If it is not booting, then yes, something is wrong with it :)<br />

Is it not completing POST or is it just not booting the OS? &nbsp;Where does it stop? &nbsp;Are you getting any messages during POST/boot? &nbsp;Is the LCD panel (that is normally blue scrolling PE2950) amber or blue? &nbsp;If amber, what is the message(s)?

asidu ... your link is for a 2650, which won't help much to troubleshoot a 2950 :)

I power it on and it doesnt do anything. Now the temperature is still high and other servers are running with same error. I thought maybe it shuts down the main board if it's too hot.

Hello,<br />
<br />
Our AC unit went down over the weekend and my servers are really hot. My servers read E0119 Ambient error on bezel. I got another AC and my server are beginning to cool down, however one of my server still read the error and doesn't boot. The others read the error, but booted. Is there something wrong with the server?<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

Dell PE2950 E0119 Ambient Error and server overheating.

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
