System x3200 Types 4362 and 4363: Problem Determination and Service Guide
Action
1. Run the hard disk drive diagnostic tests on drive
x.
2. Reseat the following components, depending on
the server model:
v Hot-swap models:
a. Hard disk drive x
b. SAS/SATA controller
v Simple-swap models:
a. Hard disk drive x
b. Hard disk drive x cable
3. Replace the following components one at a time,
depending on the server model, in the order
shown, restarting the server each time:
v Hot-swap models:
a. Hard disk drive x
b. Hard disk drive backplane
c. SAS/SATA controller
v Simple-swap models:
a. Hard disk drive x
b. Hard disk drive x cable
4. (Trained service technician only) Replace the
system board.
1. Make sure that no devices have been disabled in
the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
2. Change the order of the adapters in the PCI, and
PCI Express slots. Make sure that the startup
(boot) device is positioned early in the scanning
order. (For information about the scanning order,
see the User's Guide on the IBM System x
Documentation CD).
3. Make sure that the settings for the adapter and all
other adapters in the Configuration/Setup Utility
program are correct. If the memory resource
settings are not correct, change them.
4. If all memory resources are being used, remove
an adapter to make memory available to the
adapter. Disabling the BIOS on the adapter
should correct the error. See the documentation
that comes with the adapter.
