P:xx Failure Codes; Startup Sequence Description; Introduction - Avaya CallPilot 201i Maintenance And Diagnostics

P:XX failure codes

P:XX indicates a BIOS diagnostic error, where XX represents a two-character code. If the error
is a critical error, the start cycle may halt. If the error is a noncritical error, the error code is
reported in the operating system system event log after the operating system start sequence
completes and the CallPilot 8051 device driver starts.
Note:
If CallPilot is not installed, no event is logged.
Important:
POST Terminal errors that result in a system halt do not appear on the HEX display. If you
cannot use the HEX display to determine the cause of a system halt, contact your Avaya
technical support representative.

Startup sequence description

Introduction

The following table describes the startup sequence and the diagnostic stages that occur. The
entire sequence occurs when you do one of the following:
• You lock the 201i against the switch backplane, and the 201i powers up.
• You press Reset on the 201i server faceplate to perform a hardware restart.
Note:
If you restart the operating system by clicking the Shut Down and Restart options, the start
sequence starts at stage 9. However, the HEX display behaves as follows:
• The DOWN message remains displayed until the operating system start sequence
begins.
• The DOWN message does not scroll.
