I am hoping that some of you might have encountered a similar issue or possess the expertise to guide me through troubleshooting and resolution.

Here's a brief overview of the problem:

Recently, I noticed that one of the PCI Express slots on our rack server has failed. This slot is crucial for accommodating essential expansion cards, and its failure is causing disruptions in the overall performance and functionality of my server.

Symptoms:
