2. Replace the system-board, as described in Replacing the system-board and chassis assembly.

IPL status progress codes:

A compute node that stalls during an initial program load (IPL) of the operating system indicates a
problem with the operating system code or hardware configuration.
The Systems Hardware Information center at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/powersys/
v3r1m5/index.jsp describes IPL status progress codes C3yx, C500, C5yx, C600, and C6xx.

C7xxyyyy compute node firmware IPL status checkpoints:

A compute node that stalls during an initial program load (IPL) of the compute node firmware indicates
a problem with the compute node firmware code. If the C7xxyyyy progress code that you see is not
C7004091, your only service action is to collect information on words 3 and 4 of the SRC, and to call your
next level of support.
If the system hangs on a progress code, follow the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed
until the problem is solved. If an action solves the problem, you can stop performing the remaining
actions. See Chapter 7, "Parts listing for IBM Flex System p260 and p460 Compute Nodes," on page 97 to
determine which components are CRUs and which components are FRUs.
