Perform the following steps:
Note: When possible, run AIX online diagnostics in concurrent mode. AIX
online diagnostics perform more functions than the stand-alone
Diagnostics.
1. Perform the AIX online diagnostics, see "Starting AIX concurrent
diagnostics" on page 189. Record any diagnostic results and see the
"Service request numbers (SRNs)" on page 141 to identify the failing
component.
Note: When replacing a component, perform system verification for the
component. See "Using the diagnostics program" on page 192.
2. If you cannot perform AIX concurrent online diagnostics, continue to
Step 006 .
Perform the following steps:
1. Use the management-module Web interface to make sure that the
device from which you load the stand-alone diagnostics is set as the
first device in the blade server boot sequence.
2. Turn off the system unit power and wait 45 seconds before proceeding.
3. Turn on the blade server and establish an SOL session.
4. Check for the following responses:
a. Progress codes are recorded in the management-module event log.
b. Record any messages or diagnostic information that might be in the
log.
5. Load the stand-alone diagnostics. Go to "Starting stand-alone
diagnostics from a CD" on page 190 or "Starting stand-alone
diagnostics from a NIM server" on page 191.
6. If you have replaced the failing component, perform system verification
for the component. See "Using the diagnostics program" on page 192
This ends the AIX procedure.
Perform the following steps:
1. Use the management-module Web interface to make sure that the
device from which you load the stand-alone diagnostics is set as the
first device in the blade server boot sequence.
2. Turn off the blade server and wait 45 seconds before proceeding.
3. Turn on the blade server and establish an SOL session.
4. Check for the following responses:
a. Progress codes are recorded in the management-module event log.
b. Record any messages or diagnostic information that might be in the
log.
Continue with step 008 .
Load the stand-alone diagnostics. Go to "Starting stand-alone diagnostics
from a CD" on page 190 or "Starting stand-alone diagnostics from a NIM
server" on page 191.
