Security Features
The Model 275 allows you to set the following types of passwords to limit access to these systems:
v General-access password - Set only from the service processor menus. It provides limited access to the
service processor menus and is usually available to all users who are allowed to power on the system.
v Privileged-access password - Set from the service processor menus or from System Management
Services (SMS) utilities. Used by the system administrator or root user and allows access to all service
processor functions.
Powering the System On and Off
For procedures to power off and power on the system for various system configurations and operating systems, see “Stopping the System” on page 246 and “Starting the System” on page 247.
Console
The firmware starts a console-selection sequence at system boot time if any of the following is true:
v A console has not yet been selected. v A previous console-selection sequence timed out. v A change in the system configuration affects the console (keyboard installed or removed, mouse
installed or removed, graphics adapter installed or removed or moved to another PCI slot).
console-selection sequence allows you to select (from the appropriate input device) any one of the
The available console devices. If no console is selected within approximately 60 seconds, serial port 1 (S1) is selected as the console and the selection sequence times out.
Attention: If an ASCII terminal is attached to serial port 1 (S1), and there is any interaction with this
terminal:
v After OK displays in the operator panel
AND
v Before the power-on sequence is initiated
firmware will use this terminal as the console, regardless of the previous console selection.
the
After a console has been selected, the console-selection sequence is only started at boot time if there is a change in the system configuration (as previously described), or the contents of the system’s nonvolatile memory (NVRAM) are lost.
Note: Moving an ASCII terminal from one serial port to another (from S1 to S2) cannot be detected by the
firmware, so it does not constitute a configuration change.
You can also initiate a system console-selection sequence from the SMS menus.
Power-On Self-Test
After power is turned on and before the operating system is loaded, the system does a power-on self-test (POST). This test performs checks to ensure that the hardware is functioning correctly before the operating system is loaded. During the POST, a POST screen displays, and POST indicators appear on the firmware console (if one is connected). The next section describes the POST indicators and functions that can be accessed during the POST.

POST indicators indicate tests that are being performed as the system is preparing to load the operating system. The POST indicators are words that display on the system console. Each time that the system starts a different step in the POST, a POST indicator word appears on the console. Each word is an indicator of the tests that are being performed.
The POST screen displays the following words:
Memory Memory test
Keyboard Initialize the keyboard and mouse. The time period for pressing a key to access the
System Management Services, or to initiate a service mode boot is now open. See “POST Keys” for more information.
Network Self-test on network adapters
SCSI Adapters are being initialized
Speaker Sounds an audible tone at the end of POST
POST Keys
The POST keys, if pressed after the keyboard POST indicator displays and before the last POST indicator speaker displays, cause the system to start services or to initiate service mode boots used for configuring
the system and diagnosing problems. The keys are described below:
Note: The program function keys (F1-F12) on a keyboard attached to the system unit are not used and
will be ignored. After the keyboard POST indicator displays, you must use the numeric number keys.
1 Key
The numeric 1 key, when pressed during POST, starts the System Management Services (SMS) interface.
5 Key
The numeric 5 key, when pressed during POST, initiates a system boot in service mode using the default service mode boot list.
This mode attempts to boot from the first device of each type found in the list. It does not search for other bootable devices of that type if the first device is not bootable. Instead, it continues to the next device type in the list. The firmware supports up to five entries in the boot list.
Note: This is the preferred method of loading standalone AIX diagnostics from CD-ROM.
The default boot sequence is:
1. Diskette (if installed)
2. DVD-ROM (if installed)
3. Hard file
4. Tape drive (if installed)
5. Network a. Token ring b. Ethernet
6 Key
The numeric 6 key works like the numeric 5 key, except that firmware uses the customized service mode bootlist that was set up in the AIX service aids or the service processor menus.

Memory DIMM Locations
The memory DIMMs used in the system are located on the system backplane. Your system contains eight memory DIMM slots. Associated with each memory DIMM slot is an LED, which is located on the edge of the system backplane. A lit LED indicates a problem with a specific memory DIMM. For more information on the locations of the system LEDs, go to “System LED Locations” on page 17. The following rules must be followed when removing or installing memory DIMMs:
v Memory DIMMs must be installed in quads. However, you do not need to install four new DIMMs in a
quad when you have a memory problem. Exchange each DIMM, starting the system after each change, until the faulty DIMM has been replaced.
Notes:
1. Memory DIMMs must be installed in quads and in the correct slots. A quad is a group of four memory DIMMs.
2. Quads are populated in DIMM slots 1, 3, 6, 8 first, and then 2, 4, 5, 7. The only two valid slot combinations that you can use are 1, 3, 6, and 8 and 2, 4, 5, and 7.
3. At least one quad of DIMMs is installed on the system backplane. See the following illustration.
4. Each memory DIMM in a quad must be the same type and size. However, both quads on the system backplane are not required to be the same.
The system must have at least four memory DIMMs installed (1 quad).

Location Codes
Note: When the system is running under the Linux operating system no Linux location codes exist, but
physical location codes might display in the Linux error logs.
This system unit uses physical location codes in conjunction with AIX location codes to provide mapping of the failing field replaceable units. The location codes are produced by the system unit’s firmware and AIX.
Physical Location Codes
Physical location codes provide a mapping of logical functions in a platform (or expansion sites for logical functions, such as connectors or ports) to their specific locations within the physical structure of the platform.
Location Code Format
The location code is an alphanumeric string of variable length, consisting of a series of location identifiers, separated by a dash (-), or slash (/), or a pound sign (#) character. The series is hierarchical; that is, each location identifier in the string is a physical or logical child of the one preceding it.
v The - (dash) separator character represents a normal structural relationship where the child is a
separate physical package and it plugs into (or is connected to) the parent. For example, P1-M1 is a memory DIMM (M1) plugged into a system backplane (P1).
v The / (slash) separator character separates the base location code of a function from any extended
location information. A group of logical devices can have the same base location code because they are all on the same physical package, but may require extended location information to describe the connectors they support. For example, P1-X1/S1 describes the location of the serial port 1 controller and its connector (S1), which is located on the system backplane P1 (its base location code), but the / (slash) indicates that further devices can be connected to it at the external S1 serial connector. The keyboard controller and its connector likewise have location code P1-X1/K1, which means they have the same base location code (P1-X1) as serial port 1, but a different external connector. In contrast, the location code P1-X1/K1-K1 actually points to the device connected to connector K1; that is, the keyboard.
following are examples:
The
v U0.1-P1-M1 identifies memory DIMM M1 plugged into the system backplane P1. v U0.1-P1-X1/S1 identifies serial port 1 controller on the system backplane P1 or the connector for serial
port 1.
v U0.1-P1-X1/K1-K1 identifies a keyboard K1, attached to connector K1 on system backplane P1.
AIX Location Codes
Note: When the system is running under the Linux operating system, AIX location codes are not available.
The basic formats of the AIX location codes are as follows:
v For non-SCSI devices/drives:
AB-CD-EF-GH
For SCSI devices/drives:
v
AB-CD-EF-G,H
Non-SCSI Devices/Drives
For planars, cards, and non-SCSI devices, the location code is defined as follows:
Chapter 1. Reference Information 19
AB-CD-EF-GH
| | | | | | | Device/FRU/Port ID | | Connector ID | devfunc Number, Adapter Number or Physical Location Bus Type or PCI Parent Bus
v The AB value identifies a bus type or PCI parent bus as assigned by the firmware. v The CD value identifies adapter number, the adapter’s devfunc number, or physical location. The
devfunc number is defined as the PCI device number times 8, plus the function number.
v The EF value identifies a connector. v The GH value identifies a port, address, device, or FRU.
Adapters
and cards are identified only with AB-CD.
The possible values for AB are:
00 Processor bus 01 ISA bus 02 EISA bus 03 MCA bus 04 PCI bus used in the case where the PCI bus cannot be identified 05 PCMCIA buses xy For PCI adapters where x is equal to or greater than 1. The x and y are characters in the range of 0-9, A-H,
J-N, P-Z (O, I, and lowercase are omitted) and are equal to the parent bus’s ’ibm, aix-location’ open firmware property.
The possible values for CD depend on the adapter/card:
v For pluggable PCI adapters/cards, CD is the device’s devfunc number (PCI device number times 8, plus
the function number). The C and D are characters in the range of 0-9, and A-F (hex numbers). Location codes therefore uniquely identify multiple adapters on individual PCI cards.
v For pluggable ISA adapters, CD is equal to the order of the ISA cards defined/configured either by SMIT
or the ISA Adapter Configuration Service Aid.
v For integrated ISA adapters, CD is equal to a unique code identifying the ISA adapter. In most cases,
this code is equal to the adapter’s physical location code. In cases where a physical location code is not available, CD will be FF.
is the connector ID. It is used to identify the adapter’s connector to which a resource is attached.
EF
GH is used to identify a port, device, or FRU. For example:
v For ASYNC devices, GH defines the port on the fanout box. The values are 00 to 15. v For a diskette drive, H identifies either diskette drive 1 or 2. G is always 0. v For all other devices, GH is equal to 00.
an integrated adapter, EF-GH is the same as the definition for a pluggable adapter. For example, the
For location code for a diskette drive is 01-D1-00-00. A second diskette drive is 01-D1-00-01.
SCSI Devices/Drives
For SCSI devices, the location code is defined as follows:
AB-CD-EF-G,H
| | | | | | | | | Logical Unit address of the SCSI Device | | | Control Unit Address of the SCSI Device | | Connector ID | devfunc Number, Adapter Number or Physical Location Bus Type or PCI Parent Bus
20 IntelliStation POWER 9114 Model 275 Service Guide
Where AB-CD-EF are the same as non-SCSI devices.
G defines the control unit address of the device. Values of 0 to 15 are valid.
H defines the logical unit address of the device. Values of 0 to 255 are valid.
A bus location code is also generated as ’00-XXXXXXXX’ where XXXXXXXX is equivalent to the node’s unit address.
Examples of physical location codes displayed by AIX are as follows:
v Memory DIMM 2 of on system backplane P1:
U0.1-P1-M2
Examples of AIX location codes displayed are as follows:
v Pluggable PCI adapters:
1Z-08 Any PCI card in slot 1 1c-08 Any PCI card in slot 2 1f-08 Any PCI card in slot 3 1n-08 Any PCI card in slot 4 1H-08 Any PCI card in slot 5 1V-08 Any PCI card in slot 6
v Device attached to SCSI controller:
10-60-00-4,0 Device attached to integrated SCSI Port 1
Multiple FRU Callout Instructions
If an eight-digit error code appears in the operator panel display or in Chapter 5, “Error Code to FRU Index,” on page 131, a location code for a failing part may also be specified. If the location code includes a blank space followed by a lowercase x followed by a number, this is an error code with multiple FRU callouts. This error can typically happen with memory DIMMs or processors, and may involve mixed types of parts. In this case, check the system’s configuration for FRU part numbers to determine the appropriate set of FRUs.
You can determine the FRU part numbers of the electronic assemblies in the entire system by using the service processor menus. From the General User menu, select Read VPD Image from Last System Boot, then enter 90 to display detailed Vital Product Data (VPD).
If the system is running AIX, you can determine the FRU part numbers of the electronic assemblies in a partition by using the lscfg -vp | pg command. This command displays the detailed VPD of the electronic assemblies in the system. Notice that the FRU part number information for processors and memory DIMMs may be at the bottom of the command’s output.
If the system is running Linux, you can determine the FRU part numbers of the electronic assemblies in a partition by using the lscfg -vp | more command. This command displays the detailed VPD of the electronic assemblies in the system.
FRU Identify LEDs
This system is configured with an arrangement of LEDs that help identify various components of the system. These include but are not limited to:
v Power subsystem FRUs v System unit FRUs
Chapter 1. Reference Information 21
v I/O adapter identify LED v DASD identify LED
The identify LEDs are arranged hierarchically with the FRU identify LED at the bottom of the hierarchy, followed by the corresponding system unit or I/O drawer identify LED to locate the failing FRU more easily.
Any identify LED in the system may be flashed when the system is in the failed state with power on by using the service processor LED Control Menu contained in the “System Information Menu” on page
205..
Any identify LED in the system may also be flashed by using the Identify and Attention Indicators task in diagnostics. The procedure to operate the Identify and Attention Indicators task in diagnostics is outlined in Chapter 27 of the RS/6000 Eserver pSeries Diagnostic Information for Multiple Bus Systems.
If the service processor menus and the AIX diagnostics are not available, the FRU identify LEDs may be flashed. If the system is configured as a full system partition, the system can be booted to the open firmware prompt and the FRU-LED-MENU command entered. A menu displays that will allow you to turn on the desired FRU identify LED. For instructions on setting the boot mode to enable the boot to the open firmware prompt, see “System Power Control Menu” on page 202.

Chapter 2. Diagnostic Overview
The system uses an integrated set of software diagnostic procedures to help isolate failing components and system maintenance. This book, along with the RS/6000 Eserver pSeries Diagnostic Information for Multiple Bus Systems, is the basis of the diagnostic procedures for the system. In particular, Chapter 4, “Checkpoints,” on page 105, Chapter 5, “Error Code to FRU Index,” on page 131, Chapter 6, “Using the Online and Standalone Diagnostics,” on page 185, and Chapter 10, “Parts Information,” on page 301, in this book are important for the trained service representative to understand and use when isolating a failure on the system.
The manufacturer recommends that systems configured with 4 GB of memory or greater have access to a 4-mm or 8-mm tape drive for submission of system dump information if required. This function can be accomplished through locally attached or network-attached devices, as appropriate.
Maintenance Analysis Procedures (MAPs)
Maintenance Analysis Procedures (MAPs) guide the trained service representative through the system. These MAPs are the entry point for all isolation and error recovery procedures. The MAPs are consistent with existing procedures and methods. The system uses a set of integrated procedures, mentioned earlier, to which the MAPs are the primary entry point.
The MAPS are as follows:
v Entry MAP v Quick Entry MAP v MAP 1020: Problem Determination MAP v MAP 1240: Memory Problem Resolution v MAP 1320: Service Focal Point Procedures v MAP 1321: Quick Entry MAP for Systems with Service Focal Point. This MAP contains information for
systems not running the AIX operating system.
v MAP 1322: End of Call MAP for Systems with Service Focal Point v MAP 1520: Power MAP v MAP 1521: The Base System Drawer will not Power On and No Error Codes are Available v MAP 1522: Cannot Power On the I/O Drawer, Power Present LED Does Not Come On v MAP 1523: The SPCN Error Codes Table Directed You Here and the Error Code is 1011 1B0x v MAP 1540: Problem Isolation Procedures v MAP 1541: JTAG Problem Isolation v MAP 1548: Processor Subsystem Problem Isolation v MAP 1549: Attention Problem Isolation
Entry Map is the starting point for problem determination. The purpose of this MAP is to quickly point
The to the appropriate MAP or service reference information either in this book, or in the common book set, which includes the RS/6000 Eserver pSeries Diagnostic Information for Multiple Bus Systems and PCI Adapter Placement Reference.
The Quick Entry MAP is a subset of the Entry MAP and helps to save time for some types of problems.
The Problem Determination MAP provides a structured analysis method to get an error code if one is not provided by the customer, or if diagnostics cannot be loaded.
The Power MAP deals with isolation of components to diagnose a power problem. Power problems can be related to powering on and powering off the system, or power failures that occur after power is turned on.
33
The Minimum Configuration MAP is used to locate defective components not found by normal diagnostics or error-isolation methods. This MAP provides a systematic method of isolation to the failing item.
System LEDs
LEDs provide a means to identify components in your system. For more information about these LEDs, see Chapter 11, “Component and Attention LEDs,” on page 309.
System Attention LED
The system attention LED on the operator panel turns on when an entry is made in the service processor error log. When the LED is on, it indicates that user intervention or service is needed. The error entry is transmitted and recorded in the following logs:
v The system-level error logs v The operating system error log
the system attention LED is turned on, you can access the system logs to determine the reason. The
If method used to access your system logs depends on how your system is set up. For more information about how to access the system logs, see“Accessing System Log Error Information” on page 38.
Checkpoints
The system uses various types of checkpoints, error codes, and SRNs, which are referred to throughout this book (primarily in Chapter 4, “Checkpoints,” on page 105, Chapter 5, “Error Code to FRU Index,” on page 131, Chapter 6, “Using the Online and Standalone Diagnostics,” on page 185, and Chapter 10, “Parts Information,” on page 301). These codes can appear in the service processor boot progress log, the operating system error log, and the operator panel display. Understanding the definition and relationships of these codes is important to the service personnel who are installing or maintaining the system.
Codes that can appear in the service processor boot progress log, the operating system error log, the virtual terminal, and the operator panel display are as follows:
Checkpoints Checkpoints display in the operator panel from the time ac power is connected to the
system until the operating system login prompt is displayed after a successful operating system boot. These checkpoints have the following forms:
8xxx 8xxx checkpoints are displayed from the time ac power is connected to the system
until the OK prompt is displayed by the service processor on the operator panel display. (Several 9xxx checkpoints are displayed just before the OK prompt displays.)
9xxx 9xxx checkpoints are displayed by the service processor after the power-on
sequence is initiated. A system processor takes control when 91FF displays on the operator panel display.
Certain checkpoints may remain in the display for long periods of time. A
Note:
spinning cursor is visible in the upper-right corner of the display during these periods to indicate that system activity is continuing.
Exxx checkpoints indicate that a system processor is in control and is initializing

the system resources. Control is being passed to the operating system when E105 displays on the operator panel display. Location code information may also display on the operator panel during this time.
0xxx and
0xxx and 2xxx codes are AIX progress codes and configuration codes. Location
2xxx
34 IntelliStation POWER 9114 Model 275 Service Guide
codes may also be shown on the operator panel display during this time. AIX progress codes and location codes will not appear if the LINUX operating system is booting.
Codes If a fault is detected, an 8-digit error code is displayed in the operator panel display. A
Error
location code may be displayed at the same time on the second line.
SRNs Service request numbers, in the form xxx-xxx, xxx-xxxx, xxxx-xxx, or xxxx-xxxx may also
be displayed on the operator panel display and be noted in the AIX error log. SRNs will not appear in the Linux system error log when Linux is the operating system.
Checkpoints can become error codes if the system fails to advance past the point at which the code is presented. For a list of the checkpoints, see Chapter 4, “Checkpoints,” on page 105. Each entry provides a description of the event and the recommended action if the system fails to advance.
SRNs are listed in the RS/6000 Eserver pSeries Diagnostic Information for Multiple Bus Systems, order number SA38-0509.
FRU Isolation
For a list of error codes and recommended actions for each code, see Chapter 5, “Error Code to FRU Index,” on page 131. These actions can refer to Chapter 10, “Parts Information,” on page 301, Chapter 3, “Maintenance Analysis Procedures (MAPs),” on page 41, or provide informational message and directions. If a replacement part is indicated, direct reference is made to the part name. The respective AIX and physical location codes are listed for each occurrence as required. For a list of locations codes, see “Location Codes” on page 19.
Note: When the system is running under the Linux operating system, AIX location codes are not available.
To look up part numbers and view component diagrams, see Chapter 10, “Parts Information,” on page 301. The beginning of that chapter provides a parts index with the predominant field replaceable units (FRUs) listed by name. The remainder of the chapter provides illustrations of the various assemblies and components that make up the system.
FRU Identify LEDs
This system is configured with an arrangement of LEDs that help identify various components of the system. These include, but are not limited to the following:
v Power subsystem FRUs v System unit FRUs v I/O adapter identify LED v DASD identify LED
The identify LEDs are arranged hierarchically, with the FRU identify LED at the bottom of the hierarchy, followed by the corresponding system unit or I/O drawer identify LED to locate the failing FRU more easily.
Any identify LED in the system can be flashed when the system is in the failed state with power on by using the service processor LED Control Menu contained in the “System Information Menu” on page 205.
Any identify LED in the system can also be flashed by using the Identify and Attention Indicators task in AIX online diagnostics. The procedure to operate the Identify and Attention Indicators task in diagnostics is outlined in the RS/6000 Eserver pSeries Diagnostic Information for Multiple Bus Systems.
If the service processor menus and the AIX diagnostics are not available, the FRU identify LEDs can be flashed by one of following:
Chapter 2. Diagnostic Overview 35
v Boot to the open firmware prompt. See the “System Power Control Menu” on page 202 for instructions
on setting up the boot mode to enable the boot to the open firmware prompt. To display a menu that will allow you to turn on the desired FRU identify LED, type FRU-LED-MENU on the command line.
Service Agent for the Model 275
Service support for the Model 275 can be enhanced through the use of the service agent application. This application provides a number of advantages for the system user, including automatic error reporting and analysis without customer intervention. The service agent is shipped with the system.
Using the Service Processor and Service Agent Features
The service processor and service agent features protect users against unnecessary system downtime by keeping support personnel (both internal and external) aware of any unexpected changes in the system environment. In combination, the two features provide a flexible solution to automated system maintenance.
Service Processor
The service processor runs on its own power boundary and continually monitors hardware attributes, the AIX operating system, and the environmental conditions within the system. Any system failure which prevents the system from returning to an operational state (a fully functional AIX operating system) is reported by the service processor. The service processor is controlled by firmware and does not require the AIX operating system to be operational to perform its tasks. If any system failures are detected, the service processor can take predetermined corrective actions. The methods of corrective actions are:
v Surveillance v Call home v AIX operating system monitoring
Surveillance
is a function in which the service processor monitors the system through heartbeat
communication with the system firmware. The heartbeat is a periodic signal that the firmware can monitor. During system startup, the firmware surveillance monitor is automatically enabled to check for heartbeats from the firmware. If a heartbeat is not detected within a default period, the service processor cycles the system power and attempts to restart until the system either restarts successfully, or a predetermined retry threshold is reached. In the event that the service processor is unsuccessful in bringing the system online (or in the event that the user asked to be alerted to any service processor-assisted restarts), the system can call home to report the error.
The call home function can be initialized to call either a service center telephone number, a customer administration center, or a digital pager telephone number. The service processor can be configured to stop at the first successful call to any of the numbers listed, or can be configured to call every number provided. If connected to the service center, the service processor transmits the relevant system information (the system’s serial number and model type) and service request number (SRN). If connected to a digital pager service, the service processor inputs a customer voice telephone number defined by the customer. An established sequence of digits or the telephone number to a phone near the failed system could be used to signal a system administrator to a potential system failure.
During normal operations, the service processor can also be configured to monitor the AIX operating system. If AIX does not respond to the service processor heartbeat, the service processor assumes the operating system is hung. The service processor can automatically initiate a restart and, if enabled, initiate the call home function to alert the appropriate people to the system hang. Enabling operating system surveillance also affords AIX the means to detect any service processor failures and report those failures to the service agent application.
36 IntelliStation POWER 9114 Model 275 Service Guide
Unlike the service agent, the service processor cannot be configured in a client/server environment where one system can be used to manage all dial-out functions for a set of systems.
Prior to installing the service agent feature, ensure that you have the latest level of system firmware. You also need a properly configured modem. For more information on configuring a modem, see “Modem Configuration Menu” on page 212.
Service Agent
The service agent is a software extension to the AIX operating system that monitors the system while the AIX operating system is running. The service agent monitors and analyzes all recoverable system failures, and, if needed, can automatically place a service call to a service center (without user intervention).
The service center receives the machine type/serial number, host name, SRN, and a problem description. The service center analyzes the problem report and, if warranted, dispatches a service person to the customer site. The service center also determines if any hardware components need to be ordered prior to the service person’s arrival.
The service agent code also gives the user the option to establish a single system as the problem reporting server. A single system, accessible over the user network, can be used as the central server for all the other systems on the local area network (LAN) that are running the service agent application. If the service agent application on a remote client decides a service request needs to be placed, the client forwards the information to the service agent server which dials the service center telephone number from its locally attached modem. In this scenario, the user only needs to maintain a single analog line for providing call-out capabilities for a large set of servers.
A modem is required for enabling automated problem reporting to the IBM service center. Configuration files for several types of modems are included as part of the service agent package. Refer to “Modem Configuration Menu” on page 212 for more information on configuring your modem.
Service Focal Point
The Service Focal Point application aides service representatives in developing service strategies in an HMC environment. HMC and Service Focal Point are not supported on the Model 275.

Accessing System Log Error Information
Note: The system attention LED can be reset by following the procedures described in “Resetting the
System Attention LED.”
When an error is detected by the system, information about the error is stored in error logs. The following sections explain how to access the logs that are available on a system. The error logs are accessed from the console that is used to manage the system. From the following console descriptions, go to the instructions under the heading that best describes the system on which you are working:
v “Accessing Errors when a System is Running AIX.” v “Accessing Errors when a System is Running Linux.”
Accessing Errors when a System is Running AIX
If the system attention LED comes on and the system is running AIX, do the following to access the error logs:
1. If the system is operational, examine the AIX error log to see if user intervention is required.
2. If the system is powered off, examine the service processor error log for entries.
3. If the AIX error log indicates service support is required, or there are entries in the service processor error log, go to “Entry MAP” on page 41 with the information noted from the error log.
Accessing Errors when a System is Running Linux
If the system attention LED comes on and the system is running Linux and is not attached to an HMC, do one of the following:
v If you performed “Step 1321-43” on page 70 in “MAP 1321: Quick Entry MAP for Systems with Service
Focal Point” on page 61, return to “Step 1321-43” on page 70 to process any other symptoms.
v If you have not performed any of the steps in “MAP 1321: Quick Entry MAP for Systems with Service
Focal Point” on page 61, go to step “Step 1321-1” on page 61 and perform the procedures in the MAP.
Resetting the System Attention LED
Complete one of the following procedures to reset your attention LED.

Note:
CD-ROM is placed in the supported DVD-ROM drive. Responses to questions referring to HMC should be no.
Entry MAP
When possible, run online diagnostics in service mode. Online diagnostics perform additional functions compared to standalone diagnostics. This ensures that the error state of the system that was captured in NVRAM is available for your use in fixing the problem. The AIX error log and SMIT are only available when diagnostics are run from the hard drive.
Note: AIX Online diagnostics are not available when running the Linux operating system.
If this system is running the Linux operating system and you have not previously been directed to MAP 1321, go to the “MAP 1321: Quick Entry MAP for Systems with Service Focal Point” on page 61. Otherwise, locate the symptom for the problem in the following table, and go to the appropriate starting point.
Notes:
1. Licensed programs frequently rely on system information stored on the VPD module on the operator panel assembly. If the MAPs indicate that the operator panel assembly should be replaced, refer to “Replacing the Operator Panel” on page 284. If you replace the operator panel, the system VPD information (for example the machine type and serial number) is restored to the new VPD module in the operator panel.
2. If a network adapter is replaced, the network administrator must be notified so that the client IP addresses used by the system 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 check to ensure that any client or system that addresses this system is updated.
3. 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 19.
4. If you are not able to isolate the problem, try loading AIX standalone diagnostics from the CD-ROM or a NIM server.

Step 1321-29
Record any extended data found in the Linux system log in Step 1321-24 or the Linux boot (IPL) log in Step 1321-26. Be sure to record word 13.
Note: The line(s) in the Linux extended data that begin with ″<4>RTAS: Log Debug: 04 contain the error
code listed in the next 8 hex characters. In the previous example, 4b27 26fb is an error code. The error code is also known as word 11 . Each 4 bytes after the error code in the Linux extended data is another word (for example, 04a0 0011 is word 12, and 702c 0014 is word 13, and so on).
If the system is configured with more than one logical partition with Linux installed, repeat “Step 1321-28” on page 66 and “Step 1321-29” for all logical partitions that have Linux installed.
Step 1321-30
Were any error codes or checkpoints recorded in Steps 1321-1, 1321-22, 1321-25, 1321-27, or 1321-29?
No Go to “Step 1321-31.”
Yes Go to the “Quick Entry MAP” on page 43 with each recorded error code or symptom. Perform the
indicated actions one at a time for each error code until the problem has been corrected. If all recorded error codes have been processed and the problem has not been corrected, go to “Step 1321-31.”
Step 1321-31
If no additional error information is available and the problem has not been corrected, shut down the system.
If an HMC is not attached, you need a laptop computer (and cable, part number 62H4857) capable of connecting to serial port 1 on the processor subsystem.

Chapter 3. Maintenance Analysis Procedures (MAPs) 67
Step 1321-34
Reboot the system and and bring all partitions to the login prompt. If Linux is not usable in all partitions, go to “Step 1321-38” on page 69.
Step 1321-35
Use the lscfg command to list all resources assigned to all partitions. Record the adapter and the partition for each resource.
Step 1321-36
To determine if any device(s) or adapter(s) are missing, compare the list of found resources and partition assignments to the customer’s known configuration. Record the location of any missing devices. Also record any differences in the descriptions or the locations of devices.
You may also compare this list of found resources to a prior version of the device tree as follows:
Note: Every time that the partition is booted, the update-device-tree command is run and the device tree
is stored in the /var/lib/lsvpd/ directory in a file with the file name device-tree-YYYY-MM-DD­HH:MM:SS, where YYYY is the year, MM is the month, DD is the day, and HH, MM, and SS are the hour, minute and second, respectively, of the date of creation.
v At the command line, type the following:
cd /var/lib/lsvpd/
v At the command line, type the following:
lscfg -vpd device-tree-2003-03-31-12:26:31. This displays the device tree created on 03/31/2003 at 12:26:31.
The diff command offers a way to compare the output from a current lscfg command to the output from an older lscfg command. If the files names for the current and old device trees are current.out and old.out, respectively, type: diff old.out current.out. Any lines that exist in the old, but not in the current will be listed and preceded by a less-than symbol (<). Any lines that exist in the current, but not in the old will be listed and preceded by a greater-than symbol (>). Lines that are the same in both files are not listed; for example, files that are identical will produce no output from the diff command. If the location or description changes, lines preceded by both < and > will be output.
If the system is configured with more than one logical partition with Linux installed, repeat “Step 1321-35” and “Step 1321-36” for all logical partitions that have Linux installed.
Step 1321-37
