No signal on KVM (Cisco UCS B200 M5 Server)

[d_ahmad]

Hi, I have newly setup a server from scratch and have little technical knowledge so need help with the following;

When I load up the KVM console, a "no signal" screen appears. At one point I saw an alert on the UCS manager to say the resolution is too high, how do I overcome this? On the UCS it says the servers do not have power (an amber light is showing on the actual server. I have not setup a server profile, is this required at this stage?

Any help is very appreciated, thankyou.

I plan to eventually map an exsi iso onto it

Does the KVM video console work during BIOS/POST?

Is it just one blade or multiple?

What OS is installed on the server?

What video driver and at what resolution is the OS trying to use?
I have seen some OS's (Linux) which try to drive an oddball (non 1080p/720p) video resolution which the OOB KVM video doesn't support.
