Sdiop-Pip34; Sdiop-Pip40 - IBM iSeries Series Hardware Problem Analysis And Isolation

v Yes: Continue with the next step.
3. Does the disk unit contain data that needs to be saved?
v Yes: Continue with the next step.
v No: Initialize and format the disk units.
Attention: Any data on the disk unit will be lost. Perform the following:
a. Access SST or DST.
b. Select Work with disk units.
c. Did you get to DST with a type D IPL?
– No: Select Work with disk unit recovery —> Disk unit problem recovery procedures.
Then, continue with the next step.
– Yes: Continue with the next step.
d. Select Initialize and format disk unit for each disk unit. When the new disk unit is initialized
and formatted, the display will show that the status is complete. This may take 30 minutes or
longer.
e. The disk unit is now ready to be added to the system configuration.
This ends the procedure.
4. The disk unit contains data that needs to be saved.
v If the I/O adapter has been replaced with a different type of I/O adapter, reinstall the original I/O
adapter. Then continue with the next step.
v If the disk units have been moved from a different type of I/O adapter to this one, return the disk
units to their original I/O adapter. Then continue with the next step.
5. Stop parity protection on the disk units, and power down the system normally with the I/O adapter in
an operational state. The I/O adapter or disk units can now be returned to the configuration at the
beginning of this procedure.
This ends the procedure.
SDIOP-PIP34: For use by authorized service providers.
You were sent to this procedure from unit reference code (URC) 9027.
The I/O processor card detected that an array is not functional due to the present hardware configuration.
1. If the system has logical partitions, perform this procedure from the logical partition that reported the
problem. To determine if the system has logical partitions, go to Determine if the system has logical
partitions before continuing with this procedure.
2. Has the I/O adapter been replaced with a different I/O adapter, or have the devices been moved from
a different I/O adapter to this one?
v No: Perform "SDIOP-PIP22" on page 202.
This ends the procedure.
v Yes: Perform the following:
a. Power off the system. See Power on/off the system and logical partitions.
b. Restore all I/O cards or devices to their original position.
c. Power on the system.
3. Does the IPL complete successfully?
v No: Ask your next level of support for assistance.
This ends the procedure.
v Yes: This ends the procedure.
SDIOP-PIP40: One of the following situations has occurred:
v The storage I/O adapter is connected to an incompatible auxiliary cache I/O adapter
