[Info-vax] rx2620 power supplies / VRM voltage low

   I still know nothing, but the "HP Integrity rx2600 Server
and HP zx6000 Workstation Operations and Maintenance Guide"
(Document Part Number: 5991-5988) says that there are
distinctive patterns in the diagnostic LEDs for various
faults, including power supply and VRM over- and
under-voltage ("View the SEL for additional information.
For further assistance, contact your HP Support Engineer.")

   If the rx2620 and its corresponding manual are similar,
then there may be some useful info/advice there.  I'm still
not convinced that every power supply in the world is
defective, and if the system is complaining about the VRMs,
not the power supplies, then it may know more than any of us
about what's wrong.  But what do I know?  (And I bought two
rx2600 systems at the same time, so I have a spare one in
storage, just in case.  Except for the CPU which was donated
to my (quieter) zx2000 to replace its slower one.)
