hi, the problem was not with the pcb switch:

the chassis of the 735 hat a broken middle fan that has been outaged due
to really messy dirt in the wheel and therefore the fan motor just got
wrecked and the machine said: no thanks, i don't wanna live with one
fan not working :-(

what confused me was that with switching the machine on and off in a very
short time (five times in 3 seconds, fast like that) (which makes me
immediately feel sorry for the power supply) the machine turned on.

a witted HP field service engineer would have looked at the fans first,
i guess now ...

i assume the second machine to have a similar problem and will take down
the server for some offline time to clean both machines out of 10 years of dust...


but anyway, the old one was already screwed up and the new one is
working fine from now on :-)

i would also thank www.gall.de for the quick replacement of the pcb switch,


bye

Alex
