Explanation: VPD is being collected; xx indicates the type of device from which VPD is being collected
Response:
1. Search RETAIN tips and the firmware change history for the reference code to determine the recommended
actions. If a firmware update is needed, see Updating the firmware.
2. Replace the system-board, as described in Replacing the system-board and chassis assembly.

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

C2xxyyyy virtual service processor checkpoints:

The C2xxyyyy progress codes indicate the progress of a partition IPL that is controlled by the virtual
service processor. The virtual service processor progress codes end after the environment setup completes
and the specific operating system code continues the IPL.
The virtual service processor can start a variety of operating systems. Some codes are specific to an
operating system and therefore, do not apply to all operating systems.
The C2xxyyyy progress codes below are the progress codes that might be displayed during the power-on
self-test (POST), along with suggested actions to take if the system hangs on the progress code. Only
when you experience a hang condition should you take any of the actions described for a progress code.
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 p270 Compute Node," on page 95 to determine
which components are CRUs and which components are FRUs.
