Oddly the first time I tried to boot it today after the weekend it got far enough to bring up the web page which I copied some of the logs and alarm details to a text file. That time it didn't reboot but the critical light kept blinking.
At that point I thought the critical alarm might be because it wasn't connected to the digital SX-2000 system, so I placed it back in the rack connected the fiber cables and booted it up again, this time it failed saying CPU hogging.
It appears to me that it errors inconsistently at different stages in the boot process, making it more difficult to pinpoint the issue(s). The first file is from the web page logs, the last two are from the following two boot processes.
