a) The operating system log contains information about the NVMe Flash adapter in the form of a PCI
address. Record the PCI address information for the NVMe Flash adapter that failed. For example,
in the operating system log message nvme 0006:01:00.0: Failed status: ffffffff,
reset controller, the PCI address of the failing NVMe Flash adapter is 0006:01:00.0.
b) At the command line, type lscfg -vl pciaddress, where pciaddress is the NVMe Flash
adapter information that you recorded in step 2.a. Then, press Enter.
c) Record the slot number information that is in the location code field.
d) Replace the adapter. Go to "8335-GTC, 8335-GTG, 8335-GTH, 8335-GTW, or 8335-GTX locations"
on page 25 and use the slot number information to identify the physical location and the removal
and replacement procedure. This ends the procedure.

Identifying the location of the storage device

Use this procedure to identify the location of a storage device.
Procedure
1. Is there a disk drive or solid-state drive with an amber fault LED turned on solid?
If
Yes:
No:
2. Replace the disk drive or solid-state drive.
• If your system is an 8335-GTC, 8335-GTG, 8335-GTH, 8335-GTW, or 8335-GTX, go to "8335-GTC,
8335-GTG, 8335-GTH, 8335-GTW, or 8335-GTX locations" on page 25 to identify the removal and
replacement procedure. This ends the procedure.
3. The storage device location is determined in the drive removal and replacement procedures for your
system. Use the following table to find the correct removal and replacement procedure. This ends the
procedure.

System
8335-GTC, 8335-GTG, 8335-GTH, 8335-GTW, or
8335-GTX
