Text Messages - IBM Netfinity 4500R User Reference Manual

Diagnostic error messages indicate that a problem exists; they are not intended to be
used to identify a failing part. Troubleshooting and servicing of complex problems
that are indicated by error messages should be performed by trained service
personnel.
Sometimes the first error to occur causes additional errors. In this case, the server
displays more than one error message. Always follow the suggested action
instructions for the first error message that appears.
The following sections contain the error codes that might appear in the detailed test
log and summary log when running the diagnostic programs.
The error code format is as follows:
fff-ttt-iii-date-cc-text message
where:
fff is the three-digit function code that indicates the function being tested when
the error occurred. For example, function code 089 is for the microprocessor.
ttt is the three-digit failure code that indicates the exact test failure that was
encountered. (These codes are for trained service personnel and are described
in the Hardware Maintenance Manual.)
iii is the three-digit device ID. (These codes are for trained service personnel and
are described in the Hardware Maintenance Manual.)
date is the date that the diagnostic test was run and the error recorded.
cc is the check digit that is used to verify the validity of the information.
text message
is the diagnostic message that indicates the reason for the problem.

Text messages

The diagnostic text message format is as follows:
Function Name: Result (test specific string)
where:
Function Name
is the name of the function being tested when the error occurred. This
corresponds to the function code (fff) given in the previous list.
Result can be one of the following:
Passed This result occurs when the diagnostic test completes without any
Failed This result occurs when the diagnostic test discovers an error.
User Aborted
Not Applicable
errors.
This result occurs when you stop the diagnostic test before it is
complete.
This result occurs when you specify a diagnostic test for a device that
is not present.
