Chapter 3. Error Code to FRU Index

The Error Code to FRU Index lists error symptoms and possible causes. The most
likely cause is listed first. Use this index to help you decide which FRUs to replace
when servicing the system.
If the codes in the following tables indicate a device which is present more than once
in the system unit, a location code is needed to specify which device generated the
error. Go to Chapter 6 on page 6-1 to display the System Management Services
error log and obtain a location code. Location code descriptions can be found under
"Location Codes" on page 3-68.
Notes:
1. If more than eight digits are displayed in the operator panel, use only the first
eight digits to find the error in the tables. The digits that display beyond the first
eight digits are location codes that can assist you in diagnosing the problem. See
"Location Codes" on page 3-68.
2. Licensed programs frequently rely on network configuration, and system informa-
tion stored on the VPD on the operator panel. If the MAPs indicate that the
Operator Panel should be replaced, swap the VPD from the old operator panel to
the new one. If the old VPD module has to be replaced call technical support for
recovery instructions. If recovery is not possible, notify the system owner that
new keys for licensed programs may be required.
3. If a network adapter or the I/O board is replaced, the network administrator must
be notified so that the client IP addresses used by the server can be changed. In
addition, the operating system configuration of the network controller may need
to be changed in order to enable system startup. Also ensure that any client or
server that addresses this system is updated.
4. Each power supply has a test switch. If you are instructed to replace a power
supply, see "Power Supply Test Switch Procedure" on page 7-24.
5. For Service Processor Menu's, see Appendix C on page C-1.
If you replace FRUs and the problem is still not corrected, go to "MAP 1540:
Minimum Configuration" on page 2-37, unless otherwise indicated in the tables.
If you replace FRUs and the problem is corrected, go to MAP 410: Repair Checkout
in the Diagnostic Information for Multiple Bus Systems.
