information was available in the Service Action Log?
No Yes
Meaning or Corrective Action
The I/O processor's (IOP) licensed internal
code (LIC) has rejected the assignment of an
I/O adapter (IOA) to that IOP, or the IOP's
LIC has rejected the removal of an IOA
which the IOP owns.
Word 5 of the SRC is the Direct Select
Address (DSA) of the IOP. Word 7 of the
SRC is the DSA of the IOA.
a. Use the "Card Position Tables" on
page 282 with the DSA in word 5 of the
SRC to locate the IOP.
b. Use the "Card Position Tables" on
page 282 with the DSA in word 7 of the
SRC to locate the IOA.
Use HSM concurrent maintenance functions
to assign or remove the IOA. See the iSeries
Service Functions manual for help in using
the HSM concurrent maintenance functions.
Assignment failures can be from:
v The IOP already being at its capacity to
accept IOA assignments.
v The IOA is not a type supported by the
IOP.
Corrective action:
v Add another IOP for LIC to assign the
IOA to if necessary.
v Reassign the IOA to another IOP using
concurrent maintenance.
Removal failures:
v This is a LIC problem and should be
reported.
v Call you next level of support.
