or filler blade properly installed. If these components are
missing or improperly installed, an over-temperature condition
may result in shutdown.
2.

FRU/action
•
Make sure that there are no duplicate SCSI IDs or IRQ assignments.
•
Make sure that the hard disk drive is connected correctly.
Make more space available on the hard disk.
