  2. If the sensor is "Liquid Leak":
    1. Check whether coolant leakage found on system planar.
    2. If yes, turn off the power and remove the AC power cable and contact Lenovo Support for part replacement.
    3. If no, please do AC cycle and check if the issue still happens. If problem persists, contact Lenovo Support.

  4. If the sensor is "CPU ExtLink 1 Er" or "CPU ExtLink 2 Er":
    1. Make sure the heat sink is with sufficient torque on affected CPU location.
    2. If the problem persists, collect service data log from the XCC WebGUI and contact Lenovo Support.
  5. If the sensor is "Fan Mismatch":
    1. Make sure the type of fans installed meet the thermal requirements of the system configuration. Refer to the "Thermal rules" or "Technical rules for system fans" in the Maintenance Manual to select the correct type of system fans.

    3. If the problem persists, collect service data log from the XCC WebGUI and contact Lenovo Support.
  7. If the sensor is "RAID Vol State":
    1. Check whether there is any physical drive removed unexpectedly. Make sure that the drives are installed correctly in the same sequence as original VD creation.
    2. Boot the system by using external storage OS to collect LXCE log and FFDC log during the failure.
    3. Contact Lenovo Support.
  8. If the sensor is "XCC DB Status":
    1. Reboot XCC and see if the problem is still observed.
    2. Monitor the system to see if the problem occurs frequently, biweekly or higher frequency.
