Installing an adapter

Adapter considerations

Before you install adapters, review the following:

• Locate the documentation that comes with the adapter and follow those instructions in addition to the instructio ns given in this chapter. If you need to change the switch or jumper settings on your adapter, follow the instructions that come with the adapter.

• You can install full-length adapters in all expansion slots.

• You ca n install a 32-bit adapter in an y of the PCI slots, but you might want to

install it in a 32-bit slot and use the 6 4-b it slots for 64-bit adapters.

• Your server supports 5.0V and universal PCI adapters; it does not support 3.3V adapters.

• Your server uses a rotational interrupt technique to configure PCI adapters. Because of this technique, you can install a variety of PCI adapters that currently do not support sharing of PCI interrupts.

• PCI slots 1 and 2 are on PCI bus A and PCI slots 3, 4, and 5 are on PCI bus B. PCI bus A is often referred to as bus 0; PCI bus B is often referred to as bus 1. The system scans PCI slots 1 through 5 to a ssign system resources; then, if you have not changed the boot precedence from the default, the system starts (boots) the PCI devices in the following order: PCI slots 1 and 2, system board SCSI devices, and then PCI slot s 3 through 5.

Note: To change the boot precedence for PCI devices, start the

Configuration/Setup Utility program, and select Start Options from the main menu. Refer to the User’s Reference on the IBM Netfinity Documentation CD for details on using the Configuration/Setup Utility program.

Chapter 5. Solving problems

Solving problems

This section provides basic troubleshooting information to help you resolve some common problems that might occur while setting up yo ur server.

If you cannot locate and correct the problem using the information in this section, refer to the " Solving problems" section in the User’s Reference on the IBM Netfinity Documentation CD and the "Support for Netfinity Servers" flowchart in the front of this booklet for additional information.

Diagnostic tools overview

The following tools are available to help you identify and resolve hardware-related problems:

• Beep codes and error messages

The power-on self-test (POST) generates beep codes to indicate successful test completion or the detection of a problem.

— One beep indicates successful completion of POST. — More than one beep indicates that POST detected a problem. Error

messages also appear during startup if POST detects a hardwareconfiguration problem.

See “POST beep code descriptions” and “POST error messages” on page 26 for more information.

• Troubleshooting chart

This chart lists problem symptoms, along with suggested steps to correct the problems. See the “Troubleshooti ng c hart” on page 29 for more information.

• Event/error l ogs

The POST Error Log contains the three most recent error codes and messages that the system generated during POST. The System Event/Error Log contains all error messages issued during POST and all system status messages from the Netfinity Advanced System Management Processor.

To view th e contents of the error logs, start the Configuration/Setup Utility program; then, select Event/Error Logs from the main menu.

• Diagnostic programs and error messages

The server diagnostic programs are stored in upgradable read-only memory (ROM) on the system board. These programs are the primary method of testing the major components of your server.

Note: Refer to the "Solving Problems" section in the User’s Reference on the IBM

Netfinity Documentation CD for more detailed information about the

diagnostic programs.

POST beep code descriptions

POST emits one beep to signal successful completion. If POST detects a problem during startup, other beep codes might occur. You can use the following beep code descriptions to help identify and resolve problems that are detected during startup.
