Error code/symptom
405-xxx-00n (No good link! Check
loopback plug)
415-xxx-000 (Failed Modem test)
System-error log entries
The system-error log is similar to an event log and can contain messages of three
major types:
Information
Warning
Error
System-error log messages can originate from several sources.
v POST/BIOS
v SMI handler
v Service processor
Each entry contains date and time information, which is useful in determining the
nature of the occurrence.
FRU/action
1. Verify that the loopback plug is a gigabit loopback plug (see
"Ethernet controller troubleshooting" on page 27).
2. Check for any loose connections between the loopback plug and the
ethernet port.
v Modem
Information messages do not require action and record significant
system-level events. Example: 'System Complex Powered Up'
Warning messages indicate possible problems but do not require
immediate action. Example: 'System over recommended ambient
temperature'
Error messages indicate system errors that may require attention.
Example: 'Fan 2 not detected'
