Thanks so much Andrew and Andyalder
Tried to remove the power supply behind the server and left for 5 minutes and connected the power cord again and pushed the power button again in the front, the LEDs went to Green-Yello and Amber , never powered on..
So raised with the warranty provider and the mother board was faulty and it was replaced and all working ok now :)

It is going to be 5 years in couple of months , since we purchased these server ESX and SAN , now sure how much more we can extend the warranty and run the server.
The standard warranty given on the servers was 5 years.

You can get a maintenance contract on it from a 3rd party but make sure they carry all the spare parts needed, some unscrupulous TPMs just buy the spares when needed (although they may be still obtainable same day).

We use a company called Curvature, Formerly Syscare. They are quite reasonable and their support is pretty good.
