Bus Pip Hsl-04 - IBM i 830 Repair Manual

Attention: You must fully connect the cable and tighten the connector's
screws within 30 seconds of when the cable makes contact with the port.
Otherwise, the link will fail and you must disconnect and reconnect the
cable again. If the connector screws are not tightened, errors will occur on
the link and it will fail.
b. Disconnect the cable at the frame ID, card position, and port that you
recorded for the "second" failing resource, them wait 30 seconds and
reconnect it. See the 30 second attention notice in step 18a of this
procedure.
c. Refresh the port status by:
1) Wait 1 minute.
2) Select the Cancel function.
3) Select the Refresh function.
Determine if the link has become "operational" by repeating steps 1 through
15 of this procedure for a second time.
You may see a 6982 indicating that the loop went open and then a 6985
indicating that the loop recovered.
Note: Return to the procedure that sent you here, when you are directed
to do so in steps 1 through 15 of this procedure.
This ends the procedure.
